Zheng Fu was standing inside the palace walls, and the chief guard hastily asked, "...\Your Highness, why are you here?"
"Why do you ask me like that, Chief Guard? Do you already know that I shouldn't be here?" Zheng Fu raised her eyebrows, her eyes shining with power, and her aura was overwhelming.
The head guard didn't care about anything else, fearing that she might say another word, he loudly ordered, "This woman attempted to assassinate Empress Huayang, execute her immediately!"
Hearing this, Wang Ben drew his sword and the crowd started attacking the gate to the palace in Xianyang.
Zheng Fu slowly took out something from her sleeve and raised it high. The guards immediately dropped their weapons and knelt on both knees.
"Hail to the King!"
The object in her hand was the Jade Seal of Qin.
侍卫长惊得目瞪口呆:“你怎么会有此物?你……”
“这可是太后日思夜想从我这得到的东西,自然在我手中。”郑芙说完,不再与他废话,声色俱厉,“我以秦王玉玺命令你们,活捉此叛逆,打开宫门迎接王贲将军!”
"Yes!"
即便侍卫长武艺精湛,可架不住人多势众,很快便被制服,王贲从宫外带兵进来,朝郑芙点头示意,而后带着自己的人马把麒麟殿围得密不透风。
"Leave him alive, don't let him die!" Zheng Fu repeated the words that were used on her by Chen Quan a few days ago to the person in front of her.
The commander-in-chief struggled to break free from the restraint of two guards and approached Zheng Fu with a knife. Zheng Fu dodged to the side and without hesitation, plunged her cold sword into his chest.
"In my opinion, it is best for the Empress Dowager to return to politics as soon as possible..." In the great hall, before Feng Jie could finish his sentence, Wang Ben led a group of armed men into the hall.
Empress Hua Yang stood up and angrily pointed at Wang Ben and his men, "Wang Ben, you have the audacity to bring weapons and soldiers into the court! You are practically asking for death! Leave at once!"
Sure, here's the translation while retaining the original HTML tags:```html“What is the Empress Dowager afraid of, to be so angry?”
Hearing this, both Empress Dowager Huayang and Lv Buwei were startled. The two exchanged a glance, feeling inexplicably puzzled. Wasn't she supposed to be imprisoned fifty li outside the Xianyang City and subjected to severe torture? How could she suddenly appear here.```
郑芙越过士兵,慢慢走到王贲跟前,她一袭深色长衫,不施粉黛,苍白的脸色显得她此刻有些妖冶。她将面纱捆在脖颈上,用以遮掩恐怖的伤痕。
“芙儿,予还以为鸾儿被封了夫人,你伤心离宫了。你回来就好。”华阳太后脸色并不太好。
郑芙大笑起来,只是笑声中再无往日的纯真,她说道:“不过是你的又一颗棋子,我有什么好伤心的?把太后抓起来。”
Four soldiers at the front stood up simultaneously.
“I dare anyone to challenge me!”
Several ministers stood in front of Empress Huayang, with a look of loyalty to the death.
Zheng Fu sneered, “You all are willing to be chickens, but I wonder if there are any monkeys in this hall!”
Order from Wang Ben: "Anyone who obstructs us will be captured and imprisoned!"
At once, soldiers behind the two of them stepped forward and dragged out several ministers who had forcefully spoken up.
Empress Dowager Huayang, seeing that the situation was irreparable, shook off the soldiers' hands and coldly said, "I will leave on my own!"
Four soldiers surrounded her and led her out of the Qilin Hall.
"Even the king dare not treat me like this. Zheng Fu, I really underestimated you!"
"As a small character, I cannot catch the empress's attention." Zheng Fu turned around and followed the procession, whispering to Empress Huayang, "Thanks to your wise guidance."
“I must cut you into a thousand pieces!”
Zheng Fu ignored her and ordered the other soldiers, "Go search the palace and verify everyone's identity. All the palace people brought by the Empress Dowager will be executed by caning. Anyone else who dares to disobey will be punished as a rebel!"
```htmlMore soldiers withdrew from all around, leaving only Zheng Fu and Wang Ben with the other ministers exchanging glances in the hall.
Zheng Fu smiled, appearing amiable yet not entirely so: "Gentlemen, you seem startled. Please follow me to the side hall for some rest."```
She was about to take her leave when Lv Buwei spoke up unexpectedly from behind her: "Miss Zheng, it's not really appropriate to treat your grandmother this way, is it?"
Zheng Fu stopped in her tracks, sweat breaking out on her forehead.
若此时与吕不韦摊牌,一定会掀起巨大的风浪,眼下秦国内外空虚,经不住多一次的政变。
再转回身的时候,她脸上已是盈盈笑意:“我这样做都是为了大王和相国。”
"What do you mean by that?"
Zheng Fu approached Lv Buwei and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The Empress Dowager intends to sow discord between the Prime Minister and the Crown Prince. First, Lady Han disappeared from the Huayang Palace, and then I was imprisoned. Those few rebels were clearly the Empress Dowager's dogs, but they claimed to be the Prime Minister's servants and have been killed by me."
“斩……杀?”吕不韦不动声色,但语意略微颤抖。
“不错,因为涉及到相国,此事我不敢声张,只敢听大王的命令,带着玉玺前来制住太后。”郑芙故意把嬴政说出来,让吕不韦不敢打别的主意。
Lü Buwei chuckled, "The king is far away in Hangu Pass, yet the news of Xianyang City is quite well-informed."
Seeing that he had no other remarks, Zheng Fu said, "The Prime Minister must be worried. I will arrange for someone to send you back to your mansion immediately."
话罢,郑芙行一记常礼,徐徐退出殿外。
郑芙与王贲同行在宫里,至平阳殿内,她才放下威仪姿态,拖着疲惫的身体瘫坐在席子上。她仅仅是伤口结痂,体力并没有恢复,仍旧很是虚弱,这样折腾一番,属实太过伤精费神。
她的身子越发单薄,王贲看了十分心疼,关切问道:“蹊妹,你这几日恢复得如何?”
“不必担心我。”郑芙自己揉了揉太阳穴,“贲哥哥,等下我就用秦王玉玺封你为卫尉,取代华阳太后的羽翼驻守咸阳宫,这样你就能更好地为大王效力了。”
“都什么时候了,你先别管这些,我派人送你出宫去医馆。”王贲上前,伸手想要抱起她,又改变了姿势,将她一把拉起。
现在的他,有什么立场能在将她抱起来?王贲的心一下子黯淡下去。郑芙以后会嫁给嬴政,嫁给她从小仰慕到大的人。一个是他要效忠一生的君王,一个是他幼时初见便一见钟情的姑娘,无论如何,他都不该存有非分之想。
Zheng Fu began to feel dizzy and compromised, saying, "Thank you for taking care of the situation in the palace. I will come back tomorrow and please be careful."
"Don't worry, I will take care of everything. Please go ahead."
于是乎,王贲安排了自己的两个亲信驾车,将郑芙安安全全送出了咸阳宫。
晌午,道医馆。
步惜欢正在馆中忙碌,看到郑芙进来,语意略有责备,但更多的是关切:“郑姑娘,你怎么如君房一般喜爱乱跑,身子还未痊愈便好好待着,免得落下病根。”
"Miss Bu taught me a lesson, I'll go lie down now." Zheng Fu said with a relaxed smile, and then walked into the backyard.
The white figure was standing in the center of the courtyard, drawing symbols on the ground with a branch. Zheng Fu walked in cautiously, trying not to disturb Xia Wuqie.
夏无且知道她进了院子,冷冷说道:“若你又被人抬进来,即便是十个徐福跪地求我,我都不会再救你。”
郑芙有些不好意思,欠身说道:“宫里出了大事,我不得不去一趟,还要劳烦您多操心我的身体了。”
Summer, with her willow leaf-like eyes, glanced at Zheng Fu, making him feel uneasy. He lowered his head and continued his work, but didn't hold back his words: "You're troublesome enough as a single patient. Go back to bed and don't come out again!"
"Yes," Zheng Fu dared not offend him any further and went into the room to rest.
