No one expected that a small salt riot in the Qi State Salt Field would become more and more intense after two months, and eventually developed into a war that shakes the Qi State's foundation.

Just as the King of Qi mobilized nearby guards to suppress bandits, in Xianyang, Qin State, the time for delivery was finally reached in the tenth month of pregnancy. In a sense, the child in Qi Meiren's womb was the first child born in the Qin Palace since King Zhuangxiang ascended the throne. Therefore, with the intentional fuel of all parties, this unborn child had already cared different political significance.

In addition to the imperial physician and Wenpo, all the girls in the harem led by Zhao Ji were also present. Listening to the heart-wrenching screams of Meiren in the delivery room, the women in the harem who had never given birth were all so scared that their faces were pale, and the corners of their clothes twisted with their hands were almost twisted.

"Why haven't Sister Qi born yet? It's almost an hour. If this continues, it will be painful to death."

A young beauty sent from Yan State said timidly: "I heard that there are concubines who die of dysfunction in the palace every year, and I don't know if this is true."

"Stop Sound"

Zhao Ji glanced at the beauty majesticly and said in a cold voice: "You are not allowed to talk about these nonsense in the palace in the future. Do you know if you hear it?"

"yes."

The soft and glutinous sound sounded, which was actually true. Since it was not your own, you would naturally be self-protection. If you want to live in this palace for a long time, you still have this basic vision.

Outside the corridor of this bedroom, a team of on-duty guards surrounded the place tightly. Yingkuo received the order in the morning. Since Qi Meiren gave birth to a child, the queen had to come and wait in person. In order to ensure the safety of the queen, Yingkuo personally took over the defense of Qi Meiren's bedroom with his own command.

Listening to the heart-wrenching screams from the next door, winning the heart beat faster. He wanted to tell Zhao Ji that he was right beside him, and as long as she stretched out her hand, she could reach it. However, there were too many people in the bedroom, and it was already very strange that he, a deputy commander, took the time to take the time here. As long as he showed a trace of his feet, the person involved would not be the only one person, but two people were as simple as two.

Yingkuo could only stand so straight, listening carefully to the movements in the delivery room with his ears.

The sun gradually restrained its afterglow, and the maid and eunuch lit the candlelight one by one. Soon, the lights in the hall became brightly lit. The intermittent shouts of Mei Meiren were still continuing, but the loss of strength could not be compensated in time, so her voice became weaker and weaker, and in the end she was almost inaudible.

"Come on, come on, you can definitely hold on."

Yingkuo held Chang Ge with one hand, but his other hand was behind him. He could clearly feel the sweat on his palms, but at this time he had no time to care about these things. He had already focused all his attention on Qi Meiren's bedroom.

Waiting or long waiting

Just when Yingkuo could no longer control his heart and wanted to find a reason to go in, a loud baby cry shattered all his worries.

"Qi Meiren has given birth to a prince, and now the mother and son are safe."

Wenpo's voice was filled with joy, for nothing else, just because it was a big deal for the King of Qin to add children, and Mei Meiren Qi was very proud of her belly. In this case, the rewards given to the palace were often very generous.

"Okay, okay"

Zhao Ji said three good words in a row, and her face was filled with joy. She seemed to be happier than having a prince.

"The person who came quickly reported the good news to the king and asked the king to give him a name"

"Here"

Yingkuo felt exhausted, and sweat dripped down the gaps in his armor, which made the ground under his feet wet a lot.

Seeing this, the guards on duty next to him said with some concern: "Deputy Commander Ying, I see that you are not feeling well, why don't you leave this place to me first, and you go back and rest first."

"No, no hurry, I'm fine."

Yingkuo did not leave first, but continued to wait there because he wanted to know the attitude of King Zhuangxiang.

However, in the end, King Zhuangxiang did not show up, but Zhao Gao brought the king's order. In addition to those fixed rewards, King Zhuangxiang also named his second son Cheng Jiao. But he didn't know that since he succeeded to the throne, he did not really belong to his own son, and the blood inheritance of the Qin royal family had reached the brink of extreme danger.

Yingkuo didn't know how he returned to his residence. When he thought of having a son, Yingkuo's heart was filled with joy. But then he thought that although he was his nominal father, he could not say anything, and he could not do it. Maybe he could only stay this secret for the rest of his life. An unwilling emotion slowly grew in his heart. It was like a poisonous snake, which changed Yingkuo's thoughts without realizing it.

"I can't keep going like this anymore. Meiren Qi needs me, and her son needs me too. I don't want to be silently silently behind the scenes. I want to change such a life."

Yingkuo tapped the table with his fingers and began to seriously consider his future prospects for the first time, but at this moment, another silk squid was quietly sent to his desk.

When the rainy season came to Xianyang again, the abundant rain completely washed away the hot impetuousness in the city. Ying Kuo tightened the ribbon on his waist and strode to the schoolyard where the guards were resting. In the center of the wide schoolyard, teams of guards stood there quietly, and they were patiently waiting for the arrival of their commanders.

Ying Kuo nodded with satisfaction at the square in front of him. These people are their own direct descendants, so there is definitely no problem with loyalty. As for whether he can succeed today, it depends on God's blessing, and the second is theirs.

"Start to the bedroom to change defense"

At the same time, King Zhuang Xiang, who had just finished handling state affairs, returned to the bedroom accompanied by Zhao Gao. It was strange that King Zhuang Xiang felt that he had been in good health recently. Not only did he eat a lot, but he was also very energetic. Logically, he should have gained weight, but in reality, he was not only not fat, but he quickly lost weight. The originally fitted court uniform always felt shaking after wearing it.

"Xiao Gao, who is the person in front?" King Zhuang Xiang asked with uncertainty.

"Report to the king, it is the queen who has sent you another soup."

"Oh, since you're here, don't wait outside, let the queen come in."

Zhao Gao suddenly paused and whispered beside King Zhuangxiang: "The person behind the queen seems to be Lu Buwei." To be continued.
