The nightlife in autumn is far less rich than in modern society, and it is even more lonely in Yongdu.
Except for the soldiers patrolling back and forth, the city is almost empty.
Li Nuo and I came to Duanzi Market on Tianan Street, and found that there was an old man setting up a stall next to this small mound.
This old man dared to come out to do business just after Qin Aigong died, not to mention that he actually made a There was only a small stove cooking there, and he felt a little more courageous.
I looked around and saw two girls in black cloaks walking slowly towards me in the distance.
One of the girls took off her black cloak.
It was the princess Ying Lian.
Under the blow of losing her father, Yiren...
Her delicate face looked extremely haggard.
His eyes fell on me, and the circles under his eyes suddenly turned red.
Li Nuo and Fu Ling walked aside knowingly.
I came to Ying Lian and said softly: "My condolences."
Ying Lian nodded, but could no longer suppress the sadness in his heart.
He leaned his head on my shoulder, clenched his pink fist and beat me hard.
On the shoulder, I gently patted her slender waist to express comfort.
With great difficulty, Ying Lian finally controlled her inner feelings and took my hand to sit down in front of the low table.
The old man served four dishes of side dishes without saying a word and put a jug of wine there.
It seems that he and Ying Lian are very familiar with each other.
It should not be Ying Lian's first time visiting here.
Ying Lian said, "If you have anything to do, just tell me."
I looked at the old man with some scruples, and said pitifully: "My uncle is deaf and dumb and can't hear."
I was startled in my heart, never expecting that this bad old man who set up a stall selling wine at night was actually Ying Lian's eldest uncle, Qin Daogong's brother.
Ying Lian sighed quietly and said: "My eldest uncle did some things he shouldn't have done because he was competing with my father for the throne, and killed many relatives.
After my father ascended the throne, he did not kill him. , demoted him to a commoner, cut out his tongue, pricked his ears, and let him leave Qin forever. " "It wasn't until three years ago that my father discovered that he had returned to Yongdu to pay homage to his ancestors.
Thinking of the feelings between brothers, my father allowed my uncle to live in Yongdu City and gave him land in his mansion.
He didn't want any of the slaves.
I want this place, every night I set up a stall here when I was born, and when my father was reincarnated, he often brought me here late at night.
The two brothers would occasionally sit together and have a drink, but they never had the chance again," Ying Lian said.
The sad place started to cry again.
I turned around and looked at the old man, only to see him sitting down on the mound beside him, placing two pairs of bowls and chopsticks neatly, filling a glass of wine, as if he were a brother sitting across from him, smiling slightly and holding his hand.
The wine glass first spilled on the ground, and then he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing the scene before me, I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart.
Perhaps only after experiencing bloodshed and cruelty can these royal families understand the value of brotherly love.
Ying Lian said with a trembling voice: "Since my father passed away, my uncle will set up a stall here every night at midnight.
He does not believe that my father will die.
Every night he will drink here silently until dawn."
My eyes were moist.
I didn't know what brothers Yingfei and Yingli would think when they saw this.
I looked around and whispered: "Yingli also came to Yongdu."
Ying Lian did not feel any surprise.
She nodded slightly and said: "Since you appeared, I have already guessed that when Xin Bohou deceived the third brother to go to Huo Country, we didn't know it at that time.
The king suddenly fell ill and passed away.
Only then did he know that the third brother was not in the country.
Then there was news that the Yan State wanted to send troops.
During these days, I have been thinking about the third brother and you."

Her voice weakened.
My heart warmed, and I quietly reached out my hand to hold her catkins: "I'm thinking of you too."
Our eyes met, and after a brief affectionate exchange, we quickly returned to the grim reality.
Ying Lian said: "My eldest brother has obtained the full support of Sima Wang Sun Xi, and several ministers with different opinions have all been controlled by them."
I whispered: "According to what Ying Li said, your father originally wanted him to inherit the throne."
Ying Lian nodded and said: "It is a fact known to everyone that my father wanted my third brother to inherit the throne.
Unfortunately, he left too suddenly and did not have time to specify this matter."
I said calmly: "So according to the rules of ordering elders and younger ones, your eldest brother is naturally an unqualified candidate to inherit the throne."
Ying Lian said: "They planned carefully this time and moved quickly.
It seems that they may have made detailed plans before my father had any trouble, so they controlled the situation so smoothly."
"Do we still have a chance to turn the situation around?"
"Yes, but everything The meaning of "after"
"Queen Mother" Ying Lian nodded and said: "That's my nǎǎi.
If she is willing to come forward to support the third brother, this matter will be solved easily.
But my eldest brother has been brought up by her since he was a child.
In her heart, she likes him more."
"Since she likes to win fees, how can she support winning money?"
Ying Lian sighed quietly and said: "This matter is not easy to handle.
As a daughter, I cannot interfere too much in this matter."
"Who else in the court supports Yingli?"
"There are a lot of people here, but you have seen the current situation.
Even Taifu Bailiyi has been thrown into prison.
Who among the other ministers dares to say more?"
Yinglian paused and then said: "The Queen Mother doesn't know that eldest brother If she knew that they were planning to persecute Third Brother, she would definitely not agree to the series of things she did with Sima Wang Sun Xi. " I whispered: "The most important thing now is to let the Queen Mother know the truth."
Ying Lian shook his head sadly and said: "My wife is now immersed in sadness because of the death of my father.
How can I care about other things."
"Ying Li, as your third brother and the son of Qin Daogong, should be qualified to attend his father's funeral.
You can think of a way to let him attend the funeral.
As long as he can appear at the scene, he will naturally have the opportunity to explain this to the Queen Mother and the ministers. thing."
Ying Lian's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Sima and Big Brother will definitely put up heavy defenses that day, and it will be very difficult to enter."
Her eyes suddenly fell on her uncle, and she whispered: "Unless the uncle is willing, help us" On the day of Qin Daogong's funeral, his deaf and mute eldest brother Ying Ziqu drove an ox cart.
Inside the ox cart were two horses tied with black silk.
Ying Li and I hid In Silk Horses, Ying was very brave and courageous.
After Ying Ziqu agreed to help us, he came up with this bold plan.
He wanted to sneak into the mourning hall before the funeral of Qin Aigong and expose Ying Fei and Sima Wang Sun Xi face to face.
Conspiracy.
I thought about it again and again, and decided to personally accompany him on the adventure.
If Ying Li is really the future Grand Duke Qin Li, my experience of accompanying him from birth to death today is undoubtedly a great achievement.
What's more, even if my identity is exposed, after all, I am still Huo Guoquan's seal.
The owner is the godson of Zhou Emperor Ji Gai.
These people may give me some face.
The ox cart slowly stopped.
Ying Ziqu's special identity really played a significant role.
No one stopped him.
The ox cart entered the Qin Palace in a big way.

The mourning hall was located in the Shaoyang Palace, where the memorial tablets of the Dukes of Qin were placed. place.
Although I am brave, I can't help but feel uneasy when I come to this heavily guarded Qin Palace.
Yingziqu sat quietly on the bullock cart without saying anything.
Several guards came over and said loudly: "Go and bring down the sacrifices."
A sweet voice said: "Who dares to touch my uncle's sacrifice?"
But it was Ying Lian who had been waiting there for a long time.
She ordered: "Fu Ling, move the sacrifice that my uncle gave to my father into the mourning hall."
"yes" A cold voice came from behind: "Hold on, all sacrifices entering the palace must be interrogated."
Ying Lian said coldly: "Brother Six, please see clearly, this is uncle."
"So what, uncle?
No one can break the rules and come in.
Search for me."
My heart was pounding.
If they came to search at this time, Yingli and I would be discovered by them hiding in the horse's belly.
Suddenly there was a roar outside, followed by a thud, and someone hit the bullock cart heavily.
Ying Lian said in a trembling voice: "Uncle" I didn't know what suddenly happened outside, but when I heard Yingziqu's babbling, I was extremely excited.
Ying Lian said: "Uncle is saying that he just wants to see his younger brother.
No one can doubt him or insult him."
There was dead silence around, and it took a long time before I heard the pity-loving Sixth Brother: "Uncle, I'm not doubting you, I'm just doing things according to the rules.
I'm sorry."
He sighed and said: "Get out of the way."
Ying Lian's men carried the two silk horses hiding Ying Li and me into the mourning hall.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the Trojan horse strategy was quite effective.
The silk horse was placed on the court, and a cold and arrogant voice said: "Why is he here?"
Ying Lian said: "Brother, what's wrong with uncle coming to see my father?"
"He has been expelled from the palace by his father and demoted to a commoner.
He is not qualified to come here."
The person who spoke turned out to be the eldest prince of Qin, Ying Fei.
"Come here, please get this unwelcome person out and throw the sacrifice he brought out of the palace":
