Chapter 1118

~7 min read 1,281 words

Seeing Ying Zheng looked at Yi Xiaochuan, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he asked Yi Xiaochuan a question, "Meng Yi, no, Yi Xiaochuan, do you want to be with Yushu forever?"

Does this question still need to be asked?

Yi Xiaochuan dreamed of it.

But it could only be realized in a dream; after all, the status of the two people was disparate; status determined that they could not be together.

"Is Your Majesty making fun of me? Yushu is an Imperial Concubine; if Your Majesty didn't know about the affair between her and me, it would be fine; now that you already know, how can I be with her?"

"Imperial Concubine?" Seeing Ying Zheng sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Just a barbarian woman from a foreign race; do you really think I take her seriously?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Yi Xiaochuan was horrified again.

He really wanted to say a sentence, Yushu is not a commodity, but after thinking about it, such words were not said in the end.

Seeing Ying Zheng continued, "That day, I would appoint her as the Jade Beauty, just because she was a marriage princess from Tu'an; as long as the marriage existed, even if she was an extremely ugly woman, I would take her into the harem."

"The reason why she exists in the harem is Tu'an State."

"But today is different; the Queen of Tu'an conspired with her, revealing the purpose of her coming to my Qin Guo, which was to harm the foundation of my Qin Guo; even if she didn't do such a thing, but there is no doubt that when she once held such a purpose, she lost all value, and I don't need to keep her; similarly, such a small country as Tu'an, on one hand, relies on the Great Qin, using the power of the Great Qin to resist barbarians and Xiongnu, and on the other hand, hides evil intentions, intending to ruin my Great Qin's foundation; for the stability of the Qin Guo, Tu'an cannot be kept."

"I have decided to destroy Tu'an!"

As soon as this sentence came out, Yi Xiaochuan's face changed again; what was his choice back then for? Wasn't it to help Yushu preserve Tu'an?

Tu'an State, for Yushu, meant everything.

If this news were known by Yushu, Yushu would probably be extremely uncomfortable.

Yi Xiaochuan wanted to persuade Seeing Ying Zheng to give up destroying Tu'an, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't say them.

According to the words of Master Xiang Liang back then, Tu'an is just a small foreign country, not the people of Huaxia, and is not worth sympathizing with at all.

Not to mention, the words that the Queen of Tu'an said to Yushu earlier were all heard by Seeing Ying Zheng.

Yi Xiaochuan's face showed entanglement.

Seeing Ying Zheng looked at Yi Xiaochuan's expression and said lightly, "Are you worried that after I destroy Tu'an, the Yushu you are thinking of will also die?"

"Rest assured, I will not kill her."

"If you perform well, I will even let you be together!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's words were really surprising to Yi Xiaochuan; he really didn't expect Seeing Ying Zheng to say such words.

Or rather, today's Seeing Ying Zheng made Yi Xiaochuan feel an unprecedented strangeness; first, he revealed the affair between himself and Yushu, and then he said such words.

However, he was a clever man; although these words made him horrified, he still tasted some unusual meanings from these words.

"Yi Xiaochuan is just an ordinary person; why would Your Majesty care so much about me?"

If he didn't care about himself, when he discovered the relationship between himself and Yushu, he would definitely execute himself without a word.

But Seeing Ying Zheng didn't do that.

Not only did he pretend not to discover the relationship between himself and Yushu, but he even appointed him as a Langwei in the palace.

And Yi Xiaochuan also had a guess in his heart.

That is, Seeing Ying Zheng intended to destroy Tu'an, but kept Yushu, possibly because... of himself.

Yushu is the Princess of Tu'an, now an Imperial Concubine, but her value in Seeing Ying Zheng's mind is not worth mentioning; it seems completely inferior to himself.

Yi Xiaochuan was very curious.

"Ordinary person? In my opinion, you are not an ordinary person." Seeing Ying Zheng showed a strange look on his face, "Although Meng Tian said you are his younger brother Meng Yi who has been missing for many years, I know that you have never been Meng Yi."

"But a time traveler from later generations!"

This sentence fell into Yi Xiaochuan's ears, and the shock it brought to Yi Xiaochuan far exceeded all previous words.

For a time, Yi Xiaochuan had no time to think about more things.

The three words "time traveler" kept echoing in his mind.

Seeing Ying Zheng's words sounded again.

"If it weren't for you, why do you think I issued an imperial list to seek medical treatment for Yushu, a barbarian woman I look down upon? It was because she was unwilling to smile that I deliberately issued an imperial decree and then held a banquet for her?"

0 ········Ask for flowers···· ····

"Barbarian women have never been the people I care about; what I truly care about is you!"

These two sentences fell into Yi Xiaochuan's ears, and Yi Xiaochuan suddenly realized.

That day, Yushu was seriously ill, Seeing Ying Zheng issued an imperial list to seek medical treatment for her, he entered the palace to treat Yushu, and also learned some of her situation in the palace from Yushu's mouth.

That is, although she is an Imperial Concubine, Seeing Ying Zheng ignored her, and she didn't seem to be very favored.

But this contradicts Seeing Ying Zheng's issuing a decree to seek medical treatment for her.

Yi Xiaochuan at the beginning didn't think much about it.

Now he understood.

Seeing Ying Zheng's purpose was for himself from the beginning.

He didn't know where he learned that he liked Yushu, so after Yushu was seriously ill, he issued an imperial list to seek medical treatment, just to introduce himself into the palace.

The banquet later was also to take the opportunity to keep himself in the palace.

Yi Xiaochuan understood many things.

But there were still some things he didn't think clearly about.

That is, how did Seeing Ying Zheng know that he was a time traveler?

Thinking of this, Yi Xiaochuan immediately asked Seeing Ying Zheng this question, "How did Your Majesty know that I am a time traveler from later generations?"

When saying this, Yi Xiaochuan's tone was very complex.

Because in his opinion, Seeing Ying Zheng is an out-and-out ancient person, and logically speaking, he shouldn't know these things.

"Of course I told the Emperor!"

Another answer that exceeded Yi Xiaochuan's expectations came from Su Xuan's mouth.

A long time ago, because of various reasons, Yi Xiaochuan didn't like Su Xuan, but Yi Xiaochuan didn't expect that it was Su Xuan, whom he disliked the most, who sold him out.

Yi Xiaochuan suddenly associated, "Are you also... a time traveler?"

In this world, there were only two time travelers, himself and Gao Yao, and because of this, many habits he brought from later generations were not changed, because no one knew his origin.

If Su Xuan was also a time traveler, he could discover his identity as a time traveler from his habits.

Su Xuan did not answer this question directly, but asked Yi Xiaochuan, "Yi Xiaochuan, do you believe in destiny?" Chuan
