Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

"Lü Buwei let his son enter the Hujun Mansion and become a minister and a long history?" In the Changping Lord's Mansion, Xiong Qi couldn't help but said in astonishment after listening to Changwen Lord Xiong Heng's story.

The dignified legitimate son of the Prime Minister actually wants to go to the Hujun Mansion to serve as an official with a thousand stones. What on earth is Lu Buwei going to do?

Could it be that Yang Ming and Lu Buwei had reached some kind of deal? Xiong Qi hesitated.

If Yang Ming really reached a deal with Lu Buwei and formed an alliance, then the plans of the Chu family behind him and his aunt, the Queen Mother Huayang, in recent years would inevitably encounter setbacks or even fall short.

The power of the alliance between Ganquan Palace and Xiangguo Mansion was so terrifying that King Qin Zhaoxiang stayed in Zhangtai Palace for decades under the pressure of Ganquan Palace.

But this time, the Chu family has pinned its hopes of comeback on Qin Wangzheng. If Qin Wangzheng becomes the second king of Qin Zhaoxiang, then these people of the Chu family really have no hope of coming back.

"Today in the court, this matter has been officially confirmed in front of all the civil and military officials. Now, I'm afraid Lu Qi has gone to the Hujun Mansion to take up his post." Xiong Heng said that he had taken leave due to personal matters in recent days and was unable to participate. Xiong Qi from the meeting said.

"Tell me, what does Lu Buwei mean by this move?" Xiong Qi asked hesitantly.

"I'm afraid we still need to see what Yang Ming and Queen Mother Zhao behind him mean." Xiong Heng said.

Lu Buwei allowed his eldest son Lu Qi to enter the Hujun Mansion. The deeper meaning of this matter, not to mention the people of the Chu family, even Qin Wangzheng of Xianyang Palace was shocked and confused.

"Yang Ming, Yang Ming, it seems that I want to invite him to find out his details." Xiong Qi said thoughtfully.

Perhaps, letting Lu Qi enter the Hujun Mansion was just Lu Buwei's personal intention, and not at all the intention of the Xiangguo Mansion to form an alliance with Ganquan Palace. Yang Ming might even think that the Prime Minister's Mansion wanted to infiltrate the Hujun Mansion because of this incident, and would He became hostile to Lu Buwei.

"We want to find out the details of this Central Guardsman." Xiong Heng affirmed.

In the dusk, when Yang Ming took advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun to visit Ganquan Palace, he met someone he didn't know well in Ganquan Palace, the newly appointed guard Lu Jie.

As Xiong Qiping, Lord of Changping, was transferred to Yushi Zhongcheng, the post of Weiwei became vacant. Lu Jie, who was originally a county lieutenant in Shangdang County, was transferred to Xianyang and promoted to the post of Weiwei.

As a county lieutenant in Shangdang County, he was able to directly transcend the position of county guard and become a guard lieutenant, one of the nine ministers. Naturally, it was because he had his own connections, and his connections were the Queen Mother Zhao Ji.

Back then, Zhao Ji and Qin Wangzheng were still young masters. From the first moment Zhao set foot on Qin's land, the person they saw was Lu Jie, who was just a small official in a border town of Qin at that time. People like him, if they didn't have the opportunity, If so, he would have to take root in that border town for almost his whole life, and finally being able to get the position of county magistrate would be due to his ancestors' good deeds.

But in this world, there are people who will encounter unimaginable opportunities in life and be able to seize such opportunities.

And Lu Jie was such a person. Although Zhao Ji and Qin Wangzheng were just distressed people who returned from the Zhao Kingdom in panic at that time, in Lu Jie's eyes, they were opportunities that he might not encounter again in his life.

Therefore, at that time, he, a small official from a border town who was over 50 years old, decisively seized the opportunity.

Now so many years have passed, Zhao Ji back then has become the current Queen Mother of Qin, and the young master's government has also become the current Qin Wangzheng. And under Zhao Ji's care, he, Lu Jie, has transformed step by step from the past. A small official in the border town became a guard who is now one of the nine ministers of the Qin State.

Knowing that he was qualified for the position of guard, the first thing Lu Jie had to do after arriving in Xianyang was to pay a visit to his benefactor, the Queen Mother Zhao Ji.

Therefore, Yang Ming was able to see the newly appointed guard in Ganquan Palace.

"This is Yang Ming, now a member of the Central Guards. He has been busy setting up the Forbidden Army these days. Even the Ai family can't see anyone." In Ganquan Palace, Zhao Ji, dressed in formal clothes, introduced Yang Ming to Lu Jiedao .

The experience she experienced in Zhao State made Zhao Ji always treat those whom she was kind to very favorably.

"It turns out to be Yang Hujun. In the battle of Wucheng, everyone in the world heard of Yang Hujun's name. In the battle of Pushui, the whole world knew the name of Yang Hujun. I have also admired his name for a long time." The gray-haired Lu Jie heard this. , and hurriedly saluted Yang Ming, saying that although the guards were higher than the central guards according to their positions, Lu Jie did not dare to show any slights.

Although he was ranked as the ninth minister, he was already in his sixties, while Yang Ming was not yet twenty years old. He naturally had to make friends with such a young and powerful person.

"Weiwei is new to Xianyang, so he should take a good walk if he has the opportunity." Yang Ming returned the greeting.

"Lu Jie, it's getting late. You should go back. There are some things I want to talk to Yang Hujun about here in the Ai family." Zhao Ji interrupted the politeness between the two and ordered Lu Jie to leave.

"yes."

Since Zhao Ji issued an eviction order, Lu Jie naturally had no choice but to leave. However, when Lu Jie walked out of Xianyang Palace and boarded his carriage, he couldn't help but be a little confused. It was already late. A young man like Yang Ming was going in and out of Ganquan Palace. , is there really no problem?

"When did our Lord Central Guard have the leisure to come to the Ai family?" Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming and said angrily.

"Don't I come here every day?" Yang Ming asked.

"It's less than a quarter of an hour, what can I do if I'm here?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Then what else do you want to do, Queen Mother?" Yang Ming asked cautiously.

"You are pretending to be confused because you understand, aren't you? The Ai family tells you that the Jing Salamander is still in my hands now." Zhao Ji threatened.

During the recent period, Yang Ming has been busy with the Forbidden Army and has been staying at the military camp in Shanglinyuan during the day. Although he always visits Ganquan Palace when he returns home in the evening, this does not satisfy Zhao Ji.

If Zhao Ji were not Yang Ming who was busy with military affairs all day long.

"It won't last long. In the initial stage of the Forbidden Army, there are too many things that need to be busy. When this period of time passes and everything is on track, there won't be so many things." Yang Ming comforted Zhao Ji. road.

"How long will it take?" Zhao Ji asked.

"It will be almost ready by May." Yang Ming estimated.

"It's going to be May, it's still a long time." Zhao Ji lamented.

"Speaking of which, there is one more thing to do today." Yang Ming transferred.

Under Zhao Ji's curious gaze, Yang Ming continued: "Mr. Changping invited me to a banquet, um, to his mansion."

"That guy Xiong Qi? Why would he want to invite you?" Zhao Ji said in astonishment.

"Then who can say for sure? Maybe it was because Lu Qi was appointed as the Chief Secretary of the Protectorate and he wanted to test something." Yang Ming analyzed.

"So, you are going?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Mr. Changping is still the king's eldest brother-in-law. This face should be given to others." Yang Ming said.

"You can go, but there is one thing that the Ai family wants to remind you." Zhao Ji stared at Yang Ming and said.

"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."

"It's okay to attend the banquet, but you can't mess with those singers and dancers. The Ai family knows that those high-ranking families like to use the singers and dancers they raise to entertain their so-called distinguished guests." Zhao Ji said seriously. .

"Am I that kind of person?" Looking at Zhao Ji with a serious look on her face, Yang Ming said in a dumbfounded voice. Is this something the Queen Mother should be concerned about?

"You can't tell. A few flattering words from a beautiful woman will make you men forget about who you are." Zhao Ji sneered.

The lower limit of dirty things among high-ranking families is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

"I don't care about things that don't belong to me." Yang Ming said, Yang Ming prefers private cars to public cars.

"I hope so. Let Jing Salamander go back with you tonight." Zhao Jiyou said worriedly.

"Is there such a good thing? It seems that I should go out and walk more in the future." Yang Ming smiled.

Zhao Ji didn't have many ways to control Yang Ming, and Jing Salamander was one of them. Before, Yang Ming wanted to take Jing Salamander out of Ganquan Palace, but he had to sign a series of unequal treaties. How is it like now? Zhao Ji actually took the initiative to let go.

"How dare you." Zhao Jifeng's eyes widened and she said murderously.

"I'm afraid there is no one in the world who is more courageous than me." Yang Ming picked up Zhao Ji as he spoke: "I wonder, who in the world dares to hold the Queen Mother like me?"

"You... are disgusting." Zhao Ji punched Yang Ming on the shoulder to show her protest.

"It smells so good. If I could wake up to this fragrance every morning, it would probably be the most beautiful thing in the world." Yang Ming lowered his head and sniffed Zhao Ji's neck.

Zhao Ji raised her neck subconsciously, patted Yang Ming's shoulder and said, "You should leave quickly and stop pouring this ecstasy soup on the Ai family. I really think the Ai family is that easy to deceive."

"This is the Queen Mother who drove me away." Yang Ming put down Zhao Ji and said.

"Get out of here quickly." Zhao Ji said with an angry smile.

"Are you going to roll like this?" Yang Ming jumped up and turned over in the air. His almost superb Qing Gong made him appear at the door of the hall, leaving only his voice echoing in Zhao Ji's ears.

"Tsk." Looking at Yang Ming disappearing from behind, Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing.

The Changping Junfu was inherited from his parents. His father, the current King of Chu Xiong Yuan, was a hostage in the State of Qin. The then King Zhaoxiang of Qin married his daughter to the then Xiong Yuan. Therefore, Xiong Qi, the current king of Changping, was born. Whether he was the prince of Chu or the son-in-law of King Qin, Xiong Yuan was very popular in Qin at that time. Therefore, the mansion where he lived was naturally extraordinary.

Although Xiong Yuan later abandoned his family and son, fled back to Chu State, and inherited the throne of Chu State, this mansion still remained in the hands of Xiong Qi, the princess of Qin State. Now, that princess has passed away, and Xiong Qize Become the master here.

That night, the middle door of Changping Lord's mansion opened wide. As the owner, Changping Lord Xiong Qi personally came outside the mansion to greet Yang Ming, which could be said to have given Yang Ming enough face.
