The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 18 Beauty of the World
In the next few days, Ying Zheng's "painful" life began.

While reading a book and watching the dance, there is soft singing in my ears.

How do you read this book?
You also need to give comments on the singing and dancing and suggestions for improvement.

And one thing is quite embarrassing. The songs and dances in the Qin Dynasty world are typical decadent music.

This went on for a few days until Ying Zheng could no longer endure it.

He said to Zhao Ji: "Mother, please let Geng Ying practice with you. I have thought about it and it is really too boring to stay at home every day. I am almost six years old and it is boring for me to be alone. I should go out and have some fun. I also hope to make some friends of the same age."

Zhao Ji knew what Ying Zheng was thinking, so she teased him:

"Oh~, Zheng'er actually has such an idea. Mother never expected it. A 'nerd' would also want to go out for a walk?"

Ying Zheng remained calm. This level of teasing was like a gentle breeze to him, and he simply ignored the conversation.

He said to himself, "There should be children of my age in the Zhi Palace, and we are in similar situations, so we should be able to get along well. Anyway, I don't know how to sing or dance, and I can't give any suggestions for improvement without seeing anything. There is no point for me to stay here."

"As for safety, mother can rest assured. Ordinary people would never imagine that the child has some martial arts skills. The child has also made some achievements in martial arts training. He can perform extraordinary feats at critical moments and can also be considered to have the ability to protect himself."

"Besides, Yan Jin is there to protect me. Now that our Qin State is so powerful, who would dare to harm the child? Unless the King of Zhao has lost his mind, but the King of Zhao should be more afraid of accidents than we are."

After Ying Zheng said this, all other words were shut up.

Although Zhao Ji was somewhat dissatisfied, she always listened to Ying Zheng and considered him very much.

Besides, Zhao Ji was very satisfied with Ying Zheng's daily companionship these days.

I feel relieved in my heart. My child is a natural genius. He is good in every way, but he is too smart and mature. He is bored all day long and I am too lazy to go out even if I ask him to.

Now that he takes the initiative to go out and play, it is also a progress. Children should find people of the same age to play with.

Zhao Ji didn't want Ying Zheng to be deprived of the joy of being a child, so she agreed without saying anything else. She told Yan Jin to take good care of the little prince, bring money with him, and buy whatever he wanted.

Seeing that Zhao Ji had agreed, Ying Zheng quickly took Yan Jin out for a stroll. The imperfect thing was that there were five Zhao soldiers following them. They were forcibly sent by King Xiaocheng of Zhao under the pretext of protection.

As for Zhao Ji, without Ying Zheng's company, she could only persist in practicing singing and dancing for a few days. She was still addicted to mahjong.

It is really difficult to persist in doing something.

Speaking of which, Ying Zheng has really not seen much of this world, and he really wants to go out and take a look.

Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. Even if you have countless creative knowledge and methods of governing the country in your mind, everything must be combined with reality, otherwise good governance will turn into bad governance.

Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth, and we must seek truth from facts when doing things.

After all, this world is different from real history.

Its level of prosperity was definitely much better than the late Warring States period in real history, and its productivity was also relatively much higher.

Of course, the lives of the lower classes were equally miserable. Only the lives of the upper class nobles became more extravagant and enjoyable. After all, this was an era of universal conscription and universal war.

Getting back to the point, we have to say that Handan was the capital of the State of Zhao after all, and it was an international metropolis with many shops lining the streets, roadside stalls and vendors lined up in rows, and pedestrians jostling for position on the streets. It was extremely prosperous and lively.

Looking up, some solemn and magnificent high-rise buildings are scattered in Handan City. Those are the "Quege" of the Zhao nobles.

It was not the first time that Ying Zheng had seen many magnificent skyscrapers, but he still found them outrageous when he saw them again.

Ying Zheng thought to himself, "It seems that Gongshujia and Mohism are still developing very well. Come to think of it, if the nobles are wronged in terms of material things, what kind of nobles are they."

Ying Zheng walked on the streets of Handan, ignoring the many strange looks from passers-by.

Looking at this lively scene, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional. I have been staying at home in recent years and have never gone out to see the world. Now I go out and feel the breath of life. I feel a little uncomfortable at first.

What we see now is a prosperous scene, what we hear is the bustling streets, and the smell of fireworks and alcohol in the restaurants and hotels we pass by is overwhelming. This is truly a beautiful world.

Ying Zheng walked and looked around, while teasing with Yan Jin:

"I have heard that there were people from the State of Yan who learned to walk in Handan. Now, I see many tall and graceful women in this street market. They are indeed beautiful. Many men are also dignified, strong and powerful. It is true that their reputation is well-deserved!"

Yan Jin smiled and replied, "My dear young master, Yan and Zhao have always had many beauties. Zhuangzi's "Learning to walk in Handan" was just a mockery of Yan. Yan's beauties are not bad either. However, Yan's dances were mostly learned from Zhao. It is true that Zhao's dance steps are the best in the world."

Ying Zheng asked with a smile: "Yan Jin, you are also very knowledgeable. I wonder which country's women do you think are the most beautiful?"

"Young Master, you are overpraising me. I cannot claim to be knowledgeable."

"But I have heard people say that the countries in the world are diverse and different."

"The women of Qin are heroic, resilient and resolute; the women of Qi are affectionate and gentle; the women of Han are beautiful, elegant and extraordinary; the women of Wei are gorgeous, colorful and gorgeous; the women of Yan are graceful, beautiful and charming; the women of Zhao are delicate and graceful; the women of Chu are slender and graceful; the women of Hu are passionate, bold and unrestrained; and the land of Baiyue is full of beauties and beauties who are enchanting and charming."

"However, if we talk about comprehensiveness, the most beautiful women in the world are from Wei and Zheng. Now Zheng has long been destroyed and annexed by Han, so the elegant and beautiful women of Han are famous all over the world."

"The Wei Kingdom is now in name only, but the beauties of the Wei Kingdom are stunningly beautiful, and there is no one in the world who can match them. The Wei Kingdom has many stunning beauties. If there are no beauties from Wei Han in the royal harems of the seven kingdoms, people will laugh at you if you tell others about it."

Ying Zheng laughed and exclaimed: "The world is so colorful and beautiful. I must see the world if I have the chance."

Yan Jin flattered from the bottom of his heart: "Young Master is of noble status and extraordinary talent. In the future, the world will be yours to take whatever you want."

Ying Zheng just smiled slightly, and happened to come across a jewelry store, so he turned around and walked in.

She looked up at the many pieces of jewelry and carefully selected them for a long time. She only felt that a jade-carved peony tassel hairpin was very appealing, so she asked Yan Jin to take it down and buy it.

The shop owner is about fifty years old, with gray hair on his temples, and he is the only one guarding the shop.

Hearing Yan Jin's Qin accent, he was reluctant to sell it. But when he looked at the Zhao soldiers outside the door, the leader gave him a look, kindly telling him not to cause trouble.

Yan Jin held the sword at his waist, gritted his teeth, and said, "One thousand big coins!"
