Li Mo suddenly felt stunned.

He knew that the Queen Mother had a bad temper.

But it was still beyond his expectation to curse like this. this......How is it different from a street shrew?

It was obvious that Zhao Ji was extremely angry.

She thought that after this period of time, when the two of them had developed to this point, Li Mo would stand by her side unconditionally.

But he never thought that in the end he would still have to give himself back his power.

"I really misjudged you!"

Zhao Ji stared at him with disappointed eyes. She didn't know when her eyes started to turn red, and it seemed that there was endless grievance hidden in them.

Li Mo was speechless.

This Queen Mother, why don't you listen to others' advice?

You want to monopolize power? At least we have to see who the target is, right? It is true that there will be no harem in power in later generations.

But whether it is Lu Pheasant or Cixi, it is because the monarch is incompetent that they can manipulate it.

If the prerequisites cannot be established, how can the subsequent results be achieved?

"Why is the Queen Mother so obsessed with power?"

Li Mo heard this and his tone softened a lot.

At this time, don't irritate her anymore.

"You have to know that these don't belong to you in the first place. Zhao

Ji looked coldly and said expressionlessly:"If you have experienced such a day, you will know the difference between having power and having no power."

Li Mo tasted her words and asked,"When we were in Zhao State?""

Zhao Ji took advantage of his unpreparedness and suddenly pulled her hand back.

She folded her hands and placed them gently on her lower abdomen.

Her eyes fell straight on her feet.

She seemed to have returned to the aloof Queen Mother.

"Since you guessed it, I won’t hide it from you either."

"This palace is indeed not the biological mother of King Qin. The biological mother of King Qin had already died in the Zhao Kingdom."

She observed Li Mo's expression with her peripheral vision.

She thought Li Mo would be surprised when she heard the news.

But to her disappointment, Li Mo still looked calm.

"Ok, I know."

Li Mo noticed her peripheral vision and nodded.

"Feiyan is proficient in the art of divination, and I once asked her to speculate."

When I moved to the villa, my relationship with Feiyan hadn't broken through yet. When

I went back from Yan Lingji, I happened to meet Feiyan doing horoscopes in the yard.

So I asked her to divine the Queen Mother of Qin.

The conclusion drawn is that the Queen Mother has died long ago.

This is a destined result, so there are no variables. The one Feiyan divined was not the Queen Mother in front of her, but the Queen Mother of Qin.

Therefore, the hexagram showed this status and identity.

Originally The Queen Mother in this position is dead, but there is still a Queen Mother who is alive and active in the eyes of everyone.

The only possibility is that the one in the palace is fake.

Zhao Ji, who was puzzled, took back her peripheral vision and said:"She is. The ability is not small."

After saying that, she breathed out gently from the tip of her nose.

Her expression was sad.

"If I had the ability like her, how could my sister die?"

Li Mo instantly heard the relationship inside.

"elder sister......Are you the Queen Mother's sister?"

After Zhao Ji heard this, she immediately gave him a cold look.

"I am now the Queen Mother!"

Li Mo pursed his lips helplessly.

He followed her and said:"Yes, yes, you are the Queen Mother."

"Then King Qin’s biological mother, that’s alright, right?"

"Is King Qin’s biological mother your sister? twin?"

It seems that this is the only explanation that makes sense.

Without Zhao Ji having to say anything, Li Mo had almost guessed the whole story.

The Queen Mother in front of her was still in perfect condition, and she also said that it was because of her incompetence that King Qin's biological mother died..

Then sort out the context a little, and the answer will be obvious.

After Yingzheng was born, the relationship between Qin and Zhao became even worse, and eventually a war broke out.

King Zhuang Xiang was a hostage in Handan at the time, and Zhao wanted to kill him to vent his anger.

Lu Buwei bribed the officials guarding the city. He took him and fled back to the State of Qin.

However, he left the young Ying Zheng, the monk Zhao Ji, behind.

The State of Zhao transferred his anger to the two of them.

From then on, the two began to hide.

And the real Zhao Ji was probably killed at that time.

Ying Zheng had already remembered it at that time.

If they weren't twins, there would definitely be differences in appearance.

It's impossible for him not to be able to see it.

"Lu Buwei gave your sister to the late king, which led to her death by Zhao Guo's sword. Is that why you hate Lu Buwei so much?"

Zhao Ji suddenly looked at him in surprise.

She didn't seem to say anything. How could he have guessed this?

"This was also divined by your wife~?

Li Mo shook his head and said calmly:"Guess, actually it's not difficult to guess.""

"The late king and Lu Buwei fled to Qin, leaving behind their mother and son."

"King Qin’s biological mother entrusted Ying Zheng to you when she was dying. And because you are twins, the young Ying Zheng didn’t realize it."

"He once told me that your personality is a little different from what he remembers."

Speaking of this, Li Mo smiled.

"Since they are two people, their personalities are naturally different."

Zhao Ji's heart suddenly tightened.

Her face was panicked, and she almost straightened up and said,"Have you told Zheng'er?"

"If I told him, I wouldn't be the one here now."

Li Mo shook his head gently.

Zhao Ji breathed a sigh of relief.

To put it bluntly, she is King Qin's aunt, not his biological mother.

She is not qualified to be the queen mother.

If Ying Zheng knew about it, he could use this reason Come and take back all the power in her hands.

When the time comes, no one will be on her side.

Zhao Ji’s beautiful eyes were lowered, as if she was lost in memories

"At that time, my sister was being chased by Zhao Jun. If I had the ability, I wouldn’t have to watch her die in front of my eyes."

"You ask me why I hold on to power and don’t let it go?"

"Have you ever experienced those frightening days?"

"Do you know the kind of life where you sleep with a dagger in your hand every day?"

"Everyone around you is unworthy of your trust. They just want to catch you and exchange you for Zhao's bounty."

"My family was also implicated in this"

"No one can rely on you and no one will sympathize with you"

"The situation is precarious, and crises are everywhere"

"I almost lost my life several times."

The more Zhao Ji talked, the more she could not help herself.

Drops of crystal tears burst out from her eyes. They fell like pearls on the luxurious phoenix robe.

Li Mo stretched out his hand to comfort her.

But Zhao Ji But like a prickly hedgehog, she slapped his hand away.

"I lived like this for four years!"

"Do you know how I got through it?"

"Later, when I arrived in Qin, I thought I could finally settle down."

"But my sister is a dancer, and with her identity, I still get looked down upon and ostracized."

"Without power, how can I protect myself and Zheng'er?"

Unknowingly, her emotions began to get out of control.

She sat up straight and said almost in a questioning tone.

Li Mo's hand froze there, and finally touched her pear-cheeked cheek.

His thumb gently peeled off from there. The egg-like face of the shell scratched across her face, wiping away the tears hanging on her face.

Zhao Ji trembled.

She stared at him without resisting.

Li Mo said extremely softly:"Everything is fine now, no one I can hurt you again."

He can understand Zhao Ji's mood.

A powerless woman has been wandering on the edge of life and death for so many years.

Those days made her feel insecure for a long time.

That's why she is so obsessed with power now.

Now hold The power in her hands was like the dagger she had brought with her.

Without it, she couldn't even sleep peacefully.

But she didn't realize it. What she had in her hands now was not a dagger, but a double-edged one. A sharp sword.

She will hurt herself sooner or later!

Zhao Ji's eyes flashed with hesitation for a moment.

Then she raised her hand and gently held it on the palm of Li Mo's face. She looked at him with a sad look.

"That......Can you not force me to hand over my power?"

Li Mo moved the corners of his mouth.

He said softly:"No."

"you......go away!"

Zhao Ji immediately took off his hand from her face and stared at him angrily.

"Is your heart made of iron?"(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

So many tears were shed in vain!

Li Mo sighed softly and said:"Even if I don't interfere, do you think you can fight against your nephew? Son?"

Zhao Ji stopped talking for a moment.

Ying Zheng's performance during this period really surprised her.

Some things are innate.

Some people are born to be kings, and some people are destined to be extraordinary.

Right now, The wind direction in the DPRK has also begun to change.

Although Ying Zheng has not yet taken charge, he has already shown his majestic appearance.

"I......I......"

"So why make things so tense?"

Li Mo interrupted her.

"Qin has finally stabilized and cannot afford to continue fighting with you."

"And now the time has come"

"Several lifetimes of hard work, a hundred years of preparation"

"If it goes to waste, how can you let your sister face the former king of Qin under Jiuquan?"

Zhao Ji suddenly choked on her words. She didn't know how to refute.

In the end, she could only raise her head and look at Li Mo with complicated eyes.

There was uneasiness and entanglement in her eyes.

Li Mo was a little at a loss by this look.

He knew What is Zhao Ji worried about?

She needs a sense of security!

After thinking for a while, she comforted:"Don't worry, even if you hand over power, you will still be the Queen Mother of Qin.""

"As long as I'm here, no one will hurt you."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Ji shook her head and asked slowly:"I just want to know, what will you do if I still refuse to hand over?"

She wanted to know, if she really refused to hand over power, would Li Mo tell Ying Zheng about this?

Or, what would he do to her.

Li Mo was also stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect that she would be concerned about this. question.

After pondering for a moment, he replied:"Don't worry, I won't tell King Qin about this, but you will understand what I said in the future.""

"I am asking, what will you do?"

Zhao Ji looked at him intently and asked stubbornly.

Li Mo was stunned.

Suddenly he smiled and said:"What else can be done? You are the powerful Queen Mother, so naturally I have to come and rub your belly and squeeze your legs to please you when I have nothing to do."

Zhao Ji also laughed.

But it was a sneer.

"It's a big joke that you would please me."

"Then I ask you again, what if I give back my authority? What will happen to you?"

Li Mo touched his chin

"You still have to come and rub your belly, squeeze your legs, and have someone to talk to you."

Zhao Ji's body softened little by little. She leaned on the head of the bed weakly.

She closed her eyes and was silent for a long time. She breathed out softly, and then said calmly:"No need." Li

Mo opened his mouth to speak, but Zhao Ji interrupted him and said,"Let's go, I'm going to take a lunch break.""

Li Mo didn't stalk anymore. He walked out lightly.

Waiting for a long time after he left, Zhao Ji still leaned motionless.

It looked like she really fell asleep.

It took a long time. She closed her eyes tightly. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then her eyes slowly opened.

Her eyes were as calm as autumn water.

She looked ahead absently.

Li Mo, who left the palace, didn't understand what Zhao Ji meant now.

But as far as her determination was concerned, In terms of attitude, it might not be that easy for her to return power to the government.

He indeed had no intention of telling Ying Zheng about Zhao Ji's identity.

Although the Queen Mother was not his biological mother, she brought him back from the Zhao Kingdom's death. Yes.

This is a fact that cannot be changed no matter what.

I have told her everything that needs to be said and persuaded me.

Let her consider the rest.

The reason why Li Mo is so sincere is because Zhao Ji was indeed good to him.

He didn't want to see the"mother and son" eventually become opposites.

Although Zhao Ji seemed to be in great power now,

Li Mo knew very well that neither of them was a match for Ying Zheng.

Now Some officials in the court were already frightened by Ying Zheng.

When he takes charge, there will be no shortage of supporters. It will only be a matter of time before he gets his power back.

Days pass by.

Li Wu heard news from South Korea.

She replied After Korea, the King of Korea had no objections.

The military power of Hangu Pass was still in her hands.

This move was crucial.

It was only Korea, but Qin had not conquered it for decades.

The biggest obstacle was It was the Hangu Pass.

Now that Hangu Pass is in the hands of Li Wu, it can be said to have become useless.

At this moment, news came from the fifteenth city of Nanyang ceded by South Korea that made Qin angry.

After Nanyang was ceded It should have belonged to the territory of Qin.

But the people of Nanyang were unwilling to return to Qin and were willing to rely on Zhao.

And Zhao also accepted their surrender.

South Korea, Wei, and Zhao all came from Jin

"This is also where the"Three Families Divide Jin" came from.

In other words, before the Warring States Period, the three countries were actually one country.

Since they were once one country, the political systems, economic life, and customs were very similar.

Moreover, the two places bordered each other, and the people The exchanges between the two countries are already close.

Moreover, the laws of the Qin State are strict and some systems are unacceptable to the people for a while.

Therefore, they are willing to rely on the State of Zhao rather than enter the jurisdiction of the Qin State. As soon as the news spread back to the State of Qin, it attracted The government and the public were furious.

The State of Qin sent envoys to the State of Zhao to ask for an explanation, and asked the King of Zhao to send the people of Nanyang back.

But the State of Zhao thought it was a snake and refused the request of the State of Qin on the grounds that the people came here on their own.

Regarding this matter, The DPRK and China are also divided into two sides.

One side thinks that Zhao should be dispatched, and the other thinks that Zhao should still have a good discussion with Zhao.

Zhao is different from South Korea.

Although Zhao was injured in the battle of Changping by Wu Anjun, The past few decades of recuperation have allowed them to recover.

Coupled with the fact that Li Mu, the military god of Zhao State, is in charge, it is not that easy to move Zhao State.

Several important ministers in the court continued to discuss in Yingzheng's study until the afternoon before leaving.

As for the discussion Naturally, there was no result.

Such a major matter cannot be finalized in a few words.

When the people left, there were only two people left in the study.

One was Ying Zheng with a gloomy face and sharp eyes.

The other was Feng The noble Queen Mother.

Zhao Ji sat in her seat, folding her hands on her lower abdomen.

Her face was slightly pale, and the bags under her eyes were slightly protruding.

Her expression was gloomy, and she looked much more haggard than before.

Her eyes moved slightly, and then she fell on Next to Ying Zheng.

Although Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, he didn't look too shocked after hearing that the people of Nanyang had defected to Zhao.

If it weren't for his ability to hide one's strength and bide one's time, he couldn't even see her as the nominal mother. Ying Zheng had actually expected it

"Zheng'er."

Zhao Jifang opened her lips slightly and shouted softly.

Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at her with concern.

"What instructions does the Queen Mother have? Zhao

Ji looked at him and asked,"Have you known for a long time that the people in Nanyang would seek refuge with Zhao?""

Ying Zheng opened and closed his lips, but hesitated to speak.

Zhao Ji understood immediately.

She said in disbelief:"Did you really know that you would be so guilty? Seeing that he couldn't hide it from her, Ying

Zheng had no choice but to nod his head:"When he proposed to exchange Nanyang with the South Korean general, the National Advisor had already predicted it."

Zhao Ji was slightly startled.

"Him again?".
