Xianyang, Ganquan Palace——

Ganquan Palace is the residence of the Empress Dowager of the Qin State today, and I see that the fragrance in the palace is constant, and the bronze stove burns the fragrance unchanged all year round.

The palace with carved beams and paintings is inlaid with gold and silver, even if it is any ordinary item in the palace, it is a luxurious treasure.

In Ganquan Palace, Zhao Ji's residence, on the soft bed, the red light gauze drapes, and the palace eunuchs served aside.

And in the looming of the light tulle, you can see a graceful figure lying on the bed, making this palace look gorgeous and enchanting.

Zhao Ji lay on the couch, and the palace maid on the side carefully fed her fruits.

Although as the Empress Dowager of the State of Qin, Zhao Ji can enjoy all the material needs of this era, she still feels empty in her heart and feels lonely.

After all, no matter how high Zhao Ji's status is, she is also a woman.

If it is an ordinary woman in this era, she may have to work hard to survive, just like when Zhao Ji was in her twenty-eighth year.

But as she returned to the Qin Kingdom, became a queen and became the empress dowager, after having all the material comforts, Zhao Ji greedily wanted more.

People's needs change with the external environment and their own possession, and Zhao Ji is no exception, and even as the Empress Dowager, her needs and desires are stronger.

"Lu Xiangbang didn't come over today?"

Bored, Zhao Ji asked in her lazy voice.

Outside the light veil, a eunuch quickly bowed his head and said, "... Back to the Empress Dowager, the slave went to Xiangbang Mansion yesterday and conveyed the Empress Dowager's will. "

Zhao Ji Zhu's lips lightly opened and asked, "... What did Lu Xiangbang say? "

The eunuch looked nervous, and said carefully: "... Lord Sangbang said that he was busy with affairs and had to share the worries of the great king, so he could not come to see the Empress Dowager. "

In fact, there is another sentence that the eunuch does not dare to say, that is, Lu Buwei reprimanded Zhao Ji and asked her to stop fooling around.

Lu Bu 560 Wei could say this, but even if it conveyed the meaning, the eunuch did not dare to say it, for fear of provoking Zhao Ji.

When Zhao Ji heard this, she slapped her jade hand hard and said angrily: "... Does that old thing still put the mourning family in his eyes? "

Seeing Zhao Ji angry, the palace maids and eunuchs quickly knelt down, and no one dared to speak.

"Okay, you all get up."

Although Zhao Ji has all kinds of problems, she is not cruel, as long as the people around her are obedient, she will not treat them because of her emotions.

"Empress Dowager Xie!"

After getting Zhao Ji's permission, the palace maids and eunuchs dared to stand up.

As for the Empress Dowager's words about the old things, they all thought they couldn't hear it.

Being in the palace, they know too well what they should hear, what they should say, what they should not listen to, and what they should not say.

Those who did not understand now do not see people in the palace.

Zhao Ji looked gloomy, she is not a woman who covets power, and it can even be said that she has no opinion and is a person who follows the trend

When she was young, her family was poor, but because of her beauty, she was valued by Lü Buwei, a great businessman at that time, and accepted as a concubine.

Although she is a concubine, Zhao Ji no longer suffers from life, and has a place to stay, and she is still very grateful to Lu Buwei.

But who would have thought that Lu Buwei would give her to Qin Yiren for his own plans.

Although Qin Yiren treated her as a wife, Zhao Ji was actually a little reluctant.

At that time, Qin and Zhao were at war, Qin Yiren as a proton, his life was very difficult, Zhao Guo did not care about him at all, not to mention the entourage and carriage in and out, it would be good to have food.

Zhao Ji can be said to have been accompanying Qin Yiren to endure hardships at that time, and if it were not for Lu Buwei's funding, Qin Yiren might have starved to death as early as Zhao Kingdom.

Until Zhao Guo felt that the proton of Qin Yiren was useless and prepared to put him to death in prison (acdi), Lü Buwei saved Qin Yiren by his own means, and the two fled Zhao Guo to Qin State.

However, Lu Buwei and Qin Yiren ran away, but they left her and Huan Zheng in the Zhao Kingdom, and Zhao Ji at that time could be said to hate Lu Buwei and Qin Yiren to the bone.

However, Zhao Ji is a typical little woman, not so ambitious and not so capable.

After she and Huan Zheng returned to the Qin Kingdom, they forgot these things under the words of Lü Buwei and Qin Yiren, who had become the King of Qin at that time.

Zhao Ji is a woman because of her own lack of ability, in fact, she is very insecure, and she needs a man to give her a sense of security.

Lu Buwei, who was well versed in human nature, saw this, so he took advantage of this, and through his own means, after the death of King Zhuangxiang, let Zhao Ji, the empress dowager, obey the government.

And Lu Buwei controlled Zhao Ji by controlling Ying Zheng, who was only thirteen years old at the time, and then comforted Zhao Ji and gave her a sense of security, so as to completely control her.

Although Zhao Ji is not capable of means and ability, but after being in the palace for so long, she can't not understand anything.

But character determines destiny, she is originally an unassertive person, even if she knows that Lu Buwei uses her, she is willing.

In the first few years of Yingzheng's succession, in order to hold great power, Lü Buwei would naturally meet all of Zhao Ji's needs as much as possible and use her to control the government of the Qin state.

But as time went on, Lu Buwei gradually became annoyed with Zhao Ji, or maybe his body was not good, and in recent years, his meeting with Zhao Ji has become less and less.

However, Lü Buwei still begged Zhao Ji, hoping to use Zhao Ji to make the King of Qin unable to crown the prince, so Lü Buwei also continued to hang her by means to make her feel that there was hope.

It's just that Zhao Ji is exactly the age of a wolf, and Lu Buwei's behavior will only make her angry more and more.

In ancient times, there were very few entertainment items, and just when Zhao Ji felt idle and bored today, a eunuch came to the palace and reported:

“...... The Queen Mother, Chang'an Jun asks to see you! "

Zhao Jileng paused for a moment and said to himself: "... Chang'anjun? (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

Immediately, Zhao Ji thought of who Chang'an Jun was, Huan Wei, the third son of King Zhuangxiang.

It's just that Zhao Ji is not deeply impressed by Huan Wei, and he has not even spoken with this third son of King Zhuangxiang, only remembering that the other party left the Qin Kingdom four years ago to study abroad, which is a study tour back?

After thinking about it, Zhao Ji felt that she was also bored now, that is, she said: "... Let him in. "

The reason why Zhao Ji has little impression of Huan Wei is that Huan Wei did not intend it.

Didn't Huan Wei know that Zhao Ji's path was actually very useful? It's just that she was still young at that time, and Zhao Ji, a woman, was not assertive.

If he touches Zhao Ji too much and arouses Lu Buwei's vigilance, then Lu Buwei may kill himself in a few words.

You must know that Lu Buwei at that time was the most critical moment to control the court of the Qin Kingdom, and Zhao Ji was his best pawn, and he would inevitably be wary of any small detail.

In particular, Lü Buwei could make Qin Yiren the king of Qin, and he took the route of Empress Dowager Huayang.

If Huan had not contacted Zhao Ji at that time, it would only make Lu Buwei suspect that Huan Wei also wanted to take Zhao Ji's route.

So at that time, Huan Wei was respectful of Zhao Ji and stayed away.

But now it is different, Huan Wei is old enough, Huan Zheng has also become the king of Qin, and he is on the side of himself, and Huan Wei also has the ability and means to compete with Lü Buwei.

So Zhao Ji's line can also be started!

Even using Zhao Ji well, it is not difficult to bring down Lu Buwei, but Huan Wei does not know that if he uses Zhao Ji's power to bring down Lu Buwei, then he can only rely on Zhao Ji in the future.

It's just that Zhao Ji, this woman, you can use her, but if you want to rely on her, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.

Therefore, mastering military power is still the goal of winning, but Zhao Ji can't ignore it.

You don't need Zhao Ji's strength, but you definitely can't let Zhao Ji make trouble, otherwise she will oppose you as the Empress Dowager, even if it is Huan Wei.

It's like a political brother, isn't it that he has no temper at all when he is suppressed.

Therefore, Huan Wei came here to coax Zhao Ji, and there was only one purpose, that is, to let her no longer help Lu Buwei, only in this way could there be hope of overthrowing Lu Buwei.

Otherwise, Lu Buwei is still mixed with Zhao Ji, and the difficulty of bringing down Lu Buwei will be infinite.

It has long been proved in ancient and modern times that no matter how powerful the imperial generals are when they are young, they will faint in the evening.

The same is true of Lu Buwei, standing at the height of history, Huan Wei did not know that Lu Buwei also began to make various faint moves in his own evening.

Zhao Ji's line is imperative, but you can't take the right waterway, you have to take the crooked road!

Even Huan Wei had already begun to calculate how to get more for himself after taking down Lu Buwei.

And if you want to get more, you must first seek military power, get the foundation of future life, and then receive part of Lu Buwei's political legacy.

In this way, coupled with his own identity as Chang'an Jun, in this way, his golden body can no longer be broken!

After receiving the eunuch's message, Huan Wei followed the eunuch and came to the Ganquan Palace.

If someone else comes to the Empress Dowager's residence, they are definitely careful, hanging their heads low, and trying not to look as much as possible.

However, Huan Wei did not care, although he was not blatant, but he also took a rough look at the layout of the palace.

"Children see the Empress Dowager!"

Came to Zhao Ji's sleeping palace, and Huan did not salute.

Although Huan Wei is not Zhao Ji's biological heir, as the third son of King Zhuangxiang, it is no problem to be called a son-in-law.

In front of the bed, Zhao Ji was still lying behind a piece of red light tulle, through the gauze curtain, Zhao Ji noticed the arrival of Huan Wei, and said with a bit of the majesty that the Empress Dowager should have:

“...... The Wei family remembered that Chang'an Jun left the Qin Kingdom to study four years ago, when did he return? "

Huan Wei replied in a clear voice: "... Yes, the son went to the small sage village of the Qi State to study, and now he can be regarded as a successful student, missing the Qin State, and missing the Empress Dowager, only to bid farewell to the teacher and return to Xianyang. "

Zhao Ji behind the gauze curtain seemed to chuckle and said, "... Chang'an Jun and the Wei family have not said a few words, how can they miss the Wei family. "

Huan Wei said sincerely, "... The son-in-law has been living in the palace since his mother died early when he was a child, and he saw the Empress Dowager from a distance, and he was envious. "

"It's just that the children were timid and cowardly at that time, and did not dare to meet the Empress Dowager, but only dared to watch from afar."

Huan Weiwei has long analyzed Zhao Ji's personality, and in the face of Zhao Ji, as long as she says good things anyway, it is to make her happy.

As long as Zhao Ji is happy, she will naturally respond to your needs with her personality.

And Zhao Ji is not a figure like Wu Zetian, she has no political skills at all, and she is a particularly pure woman.

Moreover, even Wu Zetian, the only female emperor in Chinese history, did not still favor Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi, the male favorites.

And the brothers even took advantage of Wu Zetian's favor to wantonly exclude dissidents, and in the end, the Li family and the martial artist were unhappy, and it was the Shenlong coup that made Wu Zetian abdicate.

It can be seen that this woman, as long as she is coaxed, even characters such as Wu Zetian will do stupid things, let alone Zhao Ji.

He Lu Buwei, Concubine Yi, Zhang Changzong, Zhang Yizhi did it, I can't do it? I am also the King of the Golden Wheel!

Well, wait, it seems that something is wrong!.
