It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Chapter 473
After the ceremony, Changle Palace went from being bustling to being as quiet as a cold pond.

Li Si stood at the bottom of the stairs. He looked up and saw Ying Zheng sitting in the middle. He felt uneasy. "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Emperor."

"Prime Minister, do you know why I summoned you here?"

Li Si lowered his body and said, "I dare not speculate on the matter of Changle Palace."

Words of divination and worship were hung above, half lit by candlelight, with phantom shadows swaying in the wind.

Li Si suddenly recalled two things that happened in Changle Palace more than 20 years ago.

The news of Ying Chengjiao's rebellion was first spread on the day when Ying Zheng was marrying the Chu princess Zheng Li in Changle Palace.

There are also records in the history of Qin that when Ying Zheng and his mother returned to Xianyang, Ying Yiren and Queen Mother Huayang met Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng here. The first palace in Xianyang that Ying Zheng entered was not Zhangtai Palace, but Changle Palace.

Before Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang from Handan, Zhao State, Cheng Jiao was the heir trained by the Qin royal family.

But what happened in Changle Palace?

No one knows except Ying Zheng himself.

That was a scar engraved in his heart that could not be easily untied by anyone. So when he personally drafted the Qin Law, he first asked about this law.

He was indignant that someone was asking him to once again confront this long-hidden secret.

The person who applied Qin Law turned out to be his daughter!

Ying Zheng walked out. Time had left traces on his face, but it did not diminish the burning fire in his eyes.

"Prime Minister, I haven't mentioned Changle Palace yet."

Li Si immediately kept silent.

He has always been perceptive and was thinking about his son's life here, especially in such a high-pressure environment. After Yong'an went against Ying Zheng's wishes, Li Si would never dare to easily anger Ying Zheng. However, some things are like whirlpools under undercurrents that cannot be easily involved.

"His Majesty……"

Ying Zheng turned around, raised his hand to stop, and swept his deep eyes over Li Si for a moment. Without mentioning Changle Palace, he opened a scroll of bamboo slips and talked about Meng Tian's letter to build the Chidao. After reading the war reports about the frequent disturbances by the Hu people in the north, he put the major issue of repairing the Great Walls of various countries on the agenda again.

The bamboo slips made a clacking sound as they were flipped through, and the lights were on brightly until midnight.

Just as Li Si was about to dismiss, Ying Zheng stopped him.

"Let Li Xian come to see me."

With just this one sentence and this one look, Li Si understood everything.

A huge stone fell from my heart.

When Li Si came out of Zhangtai Palace, the spring breeze was much warmer than before.

What kind of monarch is Ying Zheng? Not to mention her, anyone in the world, as long as Ying Zheng wants, Qin State has a way to suppress them.

Ying Hehua was not as smart as he thought.

Ying Zheng was extremely resentful of the affair between the Queen Mother Zhao and Lao Ai.

In the pre-Qin period, as long as it was not exposed, all matters between men and women were open. However, when it came to marriage, the strict style of Qin law had to be followed, and the most cautious was the remarriage of a widow.

Ying Hehua's act of writing the edict herself was undoubtedly a step on Ying Zheng's minefield. And her self-sacrifice was not for Ying Zheng's own daughter.

Li Si didn't care what identity Ying Hehua wanted to use to garrison in Chu. There were countless ways, but she chose the stupidest one.

He thought, at the root, she was just a woman, unable to extricate herself from such a trivial matter as love, and her actions were childish and naive!
The night was dark. Zhao Gao hurriedly followed and put a very old silk book in Li Si's hand, saying that it was given by Ying Zheng.

Li Si was half-believing and half-doubting, "Just now in the palace, His Majesty did not tell you why he asked you to pass it on now."

He smiled, revealing more white in his eyes, "This. His Majesty the Emperor is in a bad mood because of Princess Yong'an, so it's inevitable that he will forget some small things."

Ying Zheng was used to doting on Ying Hehua, and she had done many outrageous things over the years. If Zhao Gao hadn't resented Ying Hehua for taking away his power to issue the seal, and hadn't exaggerated it, Ying Zheng wouldn't have been so angry.

After Zhao Gao left, Li Si opened the silk and found that it was the catalog of the Xunzi handscroll presented by the Baqiao Palace.

The worry in his heart gradually rose.

How could these things that were destroyed by accident appear again? !
There are so many clues, all intertwined and tangled together, how could the ending be brought about by just one person or one thing?

The arrival of spring, after winter, brings a new lease of life. Not long after Li Xian came back from Zhangtai Palace that day, he met an unexpected guest on the way.

Before Chen Yu came, he heard that Li Xian had secretly dealt with some witches from the Chu State in Chen Ying and stole the jade they used for divination.

This is quite shocking.

Li Si once alienated the six kingdoms, mostly among the upper-level bureaucrats and nobles. After all, the ancients also had a reverent heart towards the gods, and witch gods and the like were harmless, and Li Si would never touch them.

However, Li Xian was not like that. On this point, he was not innocent because of ignorance. As long as the Qin State needed him, he would do whatever he wanted.

However, Li Xian usually did not ride in a carriage when he met the emperor, which was really a deliberate "care".

"Who?"

Li Xian covered her mouth, looked her up and down and said, "The princess has just angered His Majesty, and now she is going to meet Zhao Jia in this outfit. It is really not easy for her to show up. It is better for me to go to meet this man in my carriage."

After meeting Ying Zheng, he had become like this again and even picked up the title of "minister" again.

She snorted lightly, "Then please get out of here."

Li Xian smiled and said, "I have internal injuries and cannot leave."

Ten hours ago, she warned him that if he dared to talk nonsense in front of her father, the next time she would kick him it wouldn't be his chest.

Xu Zhi probably never dreamed that she could be deceived by the same person over and over again.

As soon as he told Meng Tian that he was willing to die for her, he stared at her with pitiful eyes, begging her to bend down and listen to what he said.

She didn't expect Li Xian to be so angry that he vomited blood.

She was wondering if she had gone too far.

Asking him to listen to the imperial edict in person was equivalent to admitting that all her previous words were to help him. As long as he had the ability, as long as he was obedient, she could marry him.

She smiled and talked, but her strategy was to win over others.

She underestimated him after all. Li Xian swallowed the blood back into his throat in an instant and used his appearance to make her humble herself and care about him.

Then, he would retaliate with the same cruel and heartbreaking words.

"The princess can take the blame for murdering her husband and actually did something similar."

Only those who truly understand each other know how to step on their wounds to cause the most pain.

Xu Zhi was like this, and so was he.

His mind was almost in a state of madness. He raised his face, and although he was in a low position, he captured all her emotions and whispered in confusion and intoxication.

'I think it's good that you don't want a husband, Azhi, so I don't have to worry about Meng Yi not accepting me in the future. If you do this, I can probably live longer, right? '

'you,'

Xu Zhi looked at him in shock, unable to utter a word.

Over the years, he hasn't changed at all, and has even become worse.

How could he say such shocking words without batting an eyelid?
If it wasn't in front of so many people, she should have kicked him a few more times.

Zhang Liang's death is a secret.

The marriage decree is a secret.

The worst thing is that they are each other's deepest secret, and neither of them can get rid of the other.

After meeting Ying Zheng, Li Xian skillfully lifted the curtain of the car, as if the pain had healed.

The stars are dim, and Xianyang at night is like a treasure house in the darkness.

He stared out of the carriage curtain and pulled off the token of leaving the city hanging on the hook. "If Chen Yu wants to kill, Princess, take the opportunity to leave."

Two crescent moons appeared on the beautiful face, which was rare.

"Relax, I won't stay even a second longer."
