It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Chapter 398 If life were just like the first time we met

Xu Zhi had already chosen the simplest outfit.

After noon, the heat rose. Although there was not much mountain fog in the afternoon, the snowy road down the mountain was extremely slippery.

"Princess, this is what the servants at the foot of the mountain just brought to me. Would you like to see it now?"

Xu Zhi just took a glance.

"Keep it for now." She was not an unconscious person. When she saw Mo Qi's condition, how could she not be moved at all.

In a place as otherworldly as Mount Zhongnan, looking at the snow-covered mountains.

Just now, she asked Mo Qi about his entire past, but he refused to say another word.

Seeing that he was already drunk, Xu Zhi and Li Xian had to give up for the time being.

Seeing that she did not open the secret letter as she had done before, Ah Zhi said, "Princess, the messenger said that this was sent from Xianyang."

Only then did Xu Zhi turn his attention to the dark scroll, which felt a little heavy in his hand.

She handed it to Li Xian without even glancing at it, her eyes devoid of emotion, "I'm not feeling well, let the supervisor do it for me."

Li Xian recognized that this was something his father had. In his previous life, when he handled letters from the Secret Chamber, he knew that letters from the Secret Chamber would have a very shallow engraving of a dragon pattern on the seal. This pattern was ordinary, but the cloud pattern in the middle was very different. It would be impossible for the upper class who were not specialized in it to know it.

His father officially took action?

And she didn't look at it, because she already knew that this was something sent by his father?
Li Xian raised his hand to take the ink scroll, "I obey your command."

As soon as he said this, Xu Zhi's hand suddenly stopped, and the scroll did not fall. "This is not the place to read the scroll. Anyway, you will be in Xianyang for a while, so it won't be too late to read it after you go down the mountain."

He raised his hand and lifted up a low branch in front of her, "Alright."

In this split second, Li Xian had already thought of what would be inside according to his father's habit. He wanted to warn her, but he saw someone he shouldn't have seen.

Others don’t know why Mo Qi has been able to live in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain for many years, but Li Xian knows.

Forty years ago, Mount Zhongnan was not yet a royal restricted area of ​​the Qin State.

In the Qinling Mountains, Mozi established his school of thought, and many royal nobles from various countries visited him.

Among them are Han An and Tao Yao.

To outsiders like Xu Zhi and Li Xian, there are only two roads on Mount Zhongnan, but to the Koreans, there are too many roads leading to the Zitong Forest, which means it is connected in all directions.

If that bluish-white shadow wasn't Han Fei...

Azhi carefully supported Ying Hehua and gently asked her to be careful of the road conditions.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly spoke.

"Azhi, have you seen that person before?" Xu Zhi asked.

The person just now.

Azhi thought that she wanted to ask about the Mohist disciple's martial arts. Ever since Lu Heng was sent to Shouchun, Chu State, to monitor the King of Chu, Ying Hehua has been very wary of people with high martial arts skills.

"He didn't use a sword, but an umbrella as a weapon. When I fought him, he didn't use any killing moves. This is consistent with what he said, that he is just Mr. Mo Qi's student."

Xu Zhi thought of the scene just now—Azhi decisively turned Lu Shizhi in front of her.

"Did he tell you his name?"

A trace of confusion appeared between Ah Zhi's beautiful eyebrows, "We didn't tell each other our names."

Xu Zhi paused, stepped over the small stone in the middle of the road, and said, "He is Lu Shizhi."

"Release it?" Lu Ze's younger brother.

Li Xian listened to them talking about Lu Shizhi and decided that the misunderstanding from ten years ago must be clarified.

"Lu Ze's departure was not what he wanted." "The reason was Zhao Jia."

"Zhao Jia?" Xu Zhi asked doubtfully.

Now Zhao Jia was instigated by her to go to Jiuyuan County. Zhao Jia is no longer the hostile Zhao Jia before.

"I wonder if the princess still remembers the time when Zhao Jia entered the palace."

Xu Zhi nodded. "I stabbed him, and then he went to jail, and was rescued by Yan Dan. I think he returned to Zhao?"

"But the princess doesn't know one thing." "Lü Ze and Zhao Jia had a life-saving relationship in Wei. If Lü Ze hadn't saved Zhao Jia, Zhao Jia would have been killed by Guo Kai after the crown prince was abolished. After saving Zhao Jia, Lü Ze came to Shu to avoid disaster. Three years later, Lü Ze heard from a merchant caravan that Zhao was issuing an arrest warrant for him, and Lü Ze wanted to tell Zhao Jia about it. But Qin's rule over Shu people has always been strict, and they were not allowed to leave Shu unless it was an urgent matter, so he used this incident as an excuse."

That is to say, if Lu Ze had not saved Zhao Jia back then, he would not have come to Shu and met Azhi.

If Lu Ze had not become a brother to Zhao Jia and formed a friendship of life and death, he would not have fulfilled the promise of a friend in need for the second time.

If any one of these links were missing, things would not have evolved to where they are today.

Ah Zhi's expression didn't change much after hearing this. "I have been pursuing him for many years, but neither you nor he has ever told me the truth."

"Zhao Jia has been hostile to Qin for too long, and his identity is special. It is not a good thing to have too much contact with him." Li Xian said.

Ah Zhi smiled, "You mean, Lu Ze left to protect me?" She glanced at Li Xian, "You are really interesting. For so many years, you let me misunderstand you?"

Li Xian glanced at Xu Zhi and said, "I learned about this incident by chance a few days ago. If Zhao Jia had not returned to Qin, Zhao Jia would never have told the Qin people about his miserable past."

The face and pride of the royal family seemed insignificant when he was drunk on the battlefield and drank with his comrades. For Zhao Jia, the path of life was truly clear when he came to Jiuyuan.

Ah Zhi looked into the distance, his clear eyes tinged with sadness, but more of a sigh, "It's been ten years since then, what's the point of the supervisor explaining it to me now?"

Xu Zhi wasn’t quite sure what really happened between Azhi and Lu Ze. She only knew a little bit about their past—that they were almost getting married.

Azhi wanted to blame Li Xian for their mistakes countless times, believing that it was an external force that caused the tragic ending.

But she is no longer the Ah Zhi of fifteen years old. She frowned, "What I hate most is not his leaving, not his concealment, but his underestimation of me."

This sentence is exactly the same as what Xu Zhi said to Zhang Liang that day: I advise you, sir, not to think that I am a good person and hide anything from me.

In this generally male-dominated world, men often see themselves as protectors.

In fact, women are much stronger than they think.

The snow melted and fell into water from the tips of the pine and cypress needles.

Xu Zhi really felt that he couldn't keep up with the pace. In order to avoid worrying them, he quickly took out two pills from his sleeve while they were talking and stuffed them into his mouth.

But without water, the taste was terrible and she almost choked. She coughed and her hands shook, and the pills in the bottle scattered.

Three or four of them sank into the snow.

She knew that the formula of this thing was rare, so she bent down to pick it up, one, two, three...

The fourth one rolled too far.

She looked difficult.

There seemed to be some movement among the hidden bushes, like some small animal, like a squirrel or something.

Xu Zhi wanted to grab it, but then he thought that in his current state, there was no way he could outrun the squirrel, and if he rolled down the mountain, he would be finished.

She waved her hand, leaned against the pine tree and closed her eyes to rest. "I'll give it to you. Just to remind you, this medicine works for me, but it may not work for the little squirrel."

Suddenly there was no movement among the trees.

After a while, Azhi brushed off the snow on Ying Hehua's shoulders and slowly helped her up.

"Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Xu Zhi shook her head. "I just saw a squirrel. Is that all you have to say?" She looked at Li Xian in surprise. All the old things were clear at once, but how come the conversation ended in less than three minutes?

Ah Zhi nodded and smiled at her gently, "That's all. Princess, let's go down the mountain."

"Are you really okay?" Xu Zhi asked.

Li Xian looked at the bamboo scroll in her hand, then raised his eyes, his dark eyes fell on her face, and deliberately said in a tone that was neither too heavy nor too light, which could make people angry to death: "Miss Shen is fine. As for the princess, I think it is better for you to worry more about yourself and come back twice."

If Xu Zhi was as strong as before, she would definitely want to kick him over.

"You are not allowed to speak when I am talking to Azhi."

Li Xian glanced at her and said, "Princess, you let me hear so many strange things, but you are not worried that I will go insane. I don't mean to interrupt, but I just thought that Princess would ask me if I am okay."

After hearing so many unorthodox and extremely weird things, Li Xian was not at all affected and was still able to tease her without changing his nature.

"You should be very clear about your own situation. No matter how much you know, it won't be surprising."

"Not entirely."

Li Xian lowered his head, wondering if he had misheard her and Mo Qi talking about some redundant knowledge.

"There is one thing I find strange. Mo Qi once said that the future will advocate freedom of marriage, and if a good match is difficult to make, you can still divorce. I heard him say that it takes a hundred years to be able to ride the same boat, and a thousand years to be able to sleep on the same pillow. The princess said that the person she is traveling with is one step further than this relationship. Isn't it a blessing for ten thousand years?"

Mo Qi said that he used to be a Chinese teacher and had also been an A-lister.

Could it be that he finally found a soulmate in Qin State who told him the opera White Snake all day long?
Compared with Li You, Li Xian is indeed more eloquent.

Xu Zhi was in no mood to joke with him.

"shut up."

Li Xian's expression suddenly froze, his brows sank, but his eyes were looking not far away, with more sporadic smiles in his eyes than ever before.

If life is just like first sight, why is Qiu Feng sadly painting a fan.

She saw two familiar figures on the intersecting paths. In fact, it was when she saw Azhi's eyes and the smile that drifted away that made Xu Zhi truly understand Nalan Xingde's words.

It's a pity that she only has half of this sentence.

A hundred emotions flooded my heart.

And that man in white was meant to kill her.

Their first meeting was also filled with only the impenetrable autumn wind.

Her limbs were stiff, as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and the temperature at her fingertips was even colder than before.

Han Fei advised him not to wait any longer.

Until the road is covered with snow.

Zhang Liang saw her earlier than Li Xian discovered him.

The girl who used to throw snowballs and catch snow rabbits in the snow now needs someone to support her to walk in the snow.

All this is thanks to him.

The pill in his hand seemed like the poison from that year.

The heart-wrenching pain has never been so intense in an instant.

When their eyes met, Li Xian was clearly smiling. After he saw Zhang Liang holding the Han crossbow, his eyes were even more directly provocative, as if he was saying - what, you also have this day?

Countless scenes from the past formed a city wall, blocking all of Zhang Liang's passages.

1. Nalan Xingde's "An Ancient Poem of Resolute Parting" (1655-1685) If life could always be like the first time we met, why would the autumn wind make the painted fan sad? People's hearts change easily, but they say that people's hearts change easily. (Another version: People's hearts change easily)
After the conversation at Mount Li, the night was half over, and the rain and bells never complained. How could I compare to the unfaithful man in brocade clothes, who wished to be together forever.
