"No, someone will find out." Shan Lan whispered anxiously.
"Don't worry, no one will find out." Sei Itō chuckled. Then, he half-forced Shan Lan into the room and sat down on a wooden bed.
"Sleep." Sei Itō hugged Shan Lan and lay down on the bed.
Shan Lan blushed and lay down with Sei Itō. She closed her eyes and looked like she was waiting for him to pick her. However, after waiting for a long time, she did not see the man beside her molest her. His hand was very obediently placed on her waist, as if he really wanted to hug her to sleep.
Seeing this, Shan Lan didn't know if she was disappointed or glad. She secretly sighed and relaxed her body.
Although Sei Itō didn't take her long to escape from Lu Buwei's residence, Shan Lan knew how powerful Lu Buwei was and was very nervous. She was afraid that she would be caught by the pursuers. So, even if she was distracted by talking to Sei Itō, she was always on tenterhooks and under a lot of mental pressure. Previously, she didn't feel anything because of her wandering. Now that she relaxed, she immediately felt very tired and quickly fell asleep.
Sei Itō, who noticed the change in Shan Lan's breathing, smiled and stood on the ground again.
"It's time to meet the owner of this mansion, the famous beauty of the Widow Kiyoshi." Ito Sei slightly tidied up his clothes and laughed in a low voice. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared from the room.
In fact, in history, there was a woman called Widow Qing who had a great influence on Qin Shihuang's Ying Zheng. But it wasn't like the world of Qin Shihuang. It was because she was very knowledgeable and was hired by Qin Zhuangxiang as the Crown Prince's tutor. She wasn't called Qin Qing, but Widow Ba Qing. She was the first woman in history to be titled as a chaste woman.
In addition, she was also the world's number one businesswoman. She contributed a lot to the construction of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum and the Great Wall. Therefore, after her death, Qin Shi Huang had specially built a Nuhuai Qing Platform for her as a sign of honor.
Of course, these were only historical facts. Naturally, it had nothing to do with Qin Qing in the Quest for Qin.
…
In the next moment, Sei Itō suddenly appeared in another room.
The room was built in the style of this era. The interior space was very spacious, about sixty to seventy square meters. There were pillars on both sides of the room, and curtains were nailed to the pillars, half-covering and half-hanging. The tables and cabinets, bronze ceremonial utensils, and some other decorations placed in front of the walls were covered. A large screen embroidered with patterns was placed in front of the door, blocking the environment inside the room and blocking some of the wind and dust that blew in from outside.
The floor was paved with high-quality limestone slabs. A high-quality lacquered wooden couch that could accommodate three or four people was placed at the end of the room, and a soft blanket was spread out horizontally. A woman was lying on her side on the couch, wrapped in white gauze, holding a roll of bamboo slips in her hand and silently chanting.
The woman's face was beautiful, her figure was slender and tall, and her skin was as white as jade. It reflected a faint brilliance under the dim oil lamp in the room. Her face was quiet, and her body exuded an otherworldly temperament. The whole person looked like a goddess from heaven. Her chest was slender, her waist was small, and her slender legs were faintly exposed from the gauze skirt. It was even more irresistible.
"Hibiscus from the clear water is a natural carving. Sure enough, it's a world-famous beautiful woman. "At this time, Sei Itō said with a face full of admiration.
As soon as this remark came out, the beautiful woman who was reclining on the couch was shocked, and she quickly sat up from the couch and looked up in the direction of the voice.
"Who are you?" When she saw Sei Itō's face, Qin Qing's heart calmed down. She tightly held the bamboo slips in her hand and questioned with a frown.
"I am Chen Yi." Sei Itō folded his hands in front of him and smiled.
"Chen Yi? You are Marquis Ju Lu of the State of Zhao!? " Qin Qing was stunned when she heard the two words "Chen Yi." Then, a piece of information appeared in her mind, and she said with a face full of astonishment.
"Eh, my name has already spread to the State of Qin?" Sei Itō pretended to be surprised and raised his eyebrows.
"Marquis Ju Lu isn't enjoying his life in the State of Zhao, but suddenly came to the State of Qin? You even learned from those vulgar people and snuck into the Qing residence, and even went deep into the Qing residence. Don't you think your identity as Marquis Ju Lu is tainted? "Qin Qing, who saw Sei Itō admit his identity, mocked.
At this time, Lord Meng Changjun of the State of Qi had already been dead for thirty years. Therefore, classical phrases such as the crowing of the rooster and the stealing of the dog had already appeared. Thus, a knowledgeable scholar like Qin Qing was naturally able to use them with ease.
However, it was not hard to tell that although Qin Qing had her own sources of information, they were not accurate and convenient. At the very least, Sei Itō did not know that at this time, Qin Qing had already led the State of Zhao to fight against Yan.
Sei Itō walked to the side and sat down on a short table. He laughed strangely and said, "It is naturally best to meet a beauty at night. Moreover, you have to come secretly and meet secretly. Otherwise, how can you show the concept of stealing a beauty?"
A trace of displeasure flashed across Qin Qing's face. She coldly said, "I didn't think that the world-renowned Marquis Ju Lu, who created the Hundred Schools of Thought and established Ju Lu Academy for commoners to study, would be such a frivolous and rude person. How disappointing."
Sei Itō looked at Qin Qing's cold expression with admiration and teased, "If you aren't rude, how can you see a beauty's displeasure?"
"Marquis Ju Lu, please conduct yourself with dignity." Qin Qing coldly said, "Also, Qin Qing does not welcome guests who do not worship and avoid entering at night. Marquis Ju Lu, please leave here."
"Hey, it's boring. Forget it, you are right. "Sei Itō sighed and said seriously.
Looking at Sei Itō's face that suddenly became serious, Qin Qing was slightly stunned. She felt that the judgment of Sei Itō in her heart had become vague again.
"What does Marquis Ju Lu want to say?" Fortunately, Qin Qing only stared blankly for a moment before she recovered and asked.
"Since Qing Ji knows what I am doing, then I will say it directly. I want to borrow the power of Qing Ji. I want to sell paper books in the State of Qin and promote the Li script created by me. "Sei Itō straightforwardly explained his meaning.
In fact, to be honest. The best channel candidate was Lu Buwei, a big businessman, but the key was that the man was not beautiful, and he had many political enemies. Overall, it was not very stable. Sei Itō had no love in his heart, so he had to settle for the second best. He found Qin Qing, who was both beautiful and famous in the Warring States period. Together with Ji Yanran, Queen Chu Li Yanyan, and Feng Fei, one of the three major singers in the world, they were known as the four beauties of Qin. She was a suitable candidate with both influence and channels.
"Thank you, Marquis Ju Lu, but Qin Qing is just an ordinary woman. I am afraid it is difficult for her to take on such a big responsibility." Qin Qing quietly looked at Sei Itō and said softly.
"Qing Ji is not an ordinary woman." Sei Itō smiled and said, "Qing Ji's talent is well-known in the world. She is a first-class woman in the world, and she is valued by Qin Zhuangxiang and Lady Huayang. Although she is not an official in the Qin court, her influence is not inferior to those officials in the court. She also has the ancestral property of cinnabar mining in her hands. Her business is all over the Great Qin. If such a Qing Ji is an ordinary woman, then all the ordinary women in the world can be classified as female servants. "
Qin Qing was silent.
"I don't need Qing Ji to stand up and wave the flag. When Qing Ji's people sell cinnabar mining materials, they can sell the books I sent to all parts of the Qin State. What do you think, Qing Ji? "Sei Itō ignored Qin Qing's silence and said again.
"Just sell books?" Qin Qing asked after a moment of silence.
The implication was. Don't use the name of selling books to plant spies in the Qin State?
"Just sell books." Sei Itō, who knew the deep meaning of Qin Qing's question, nodded affirmatively.
"Just sell books. I can agree. "Qin Qing thought about it and replied.
"Thank you, Qing Ji." Sei Itō smiled and thanked her.
Then the two began to discuss where to receive the books, how to receive the books, and how to deal with the money from the sale …
"Marquis Julu, are you not afraid that Qing Ji will embezzle the money?" After the discussion, Qin Qing looked at Sei Itō and asked softly.
"It's okay, if Qing Ji needs it, just take it. Just treat it as pocket money for Qing Ji." Sei Itō waved his hand and said.
"Pocket money?" Qin Qing, who had never heard of this new word, repeated it in a low voice, and then quickly guessed the meaning of the word. She rolled her eyes at Sei Itō.
How could her appearance be described as dainty and beautiful?
Sei Itō smiled and turned his palm. Two pieces of white soap and a bottle of shampoo appeared in his hand. He put it on the short table under him and said, "These two things are my new soap and shampoo. The function is similar to soap beans, but the former is used to wash the body, and the latter is used to wash the hair. After using it, the fragrance is incomparable, far more sour than soap beans. It's a gift from me to Qing Ji. "
Then, Sei Itō stood up from the table and continued, "Well, it's late, Qing Ji should rest. I won't disturb you anymore, and I'll leave now."
With that said, he cupped his fists and turned to walk out of the room.
"Creak ~"
"Boom."
"… He's a strange person." Qin Qing, who heard the sound of the door closing, turned her head and looked at the soap and porcelain bottle left on the coffee table, and whispered to herself. Then she retracted her gaze and looked down at the bamboo slip in her hand again.
However, under the influence of Sei Itō's night visit, Qin Qing was no longer interested in reading at this time, so after reading a few lines, she rolled up the bamboo slip and put it aside. She lay down on the bed again, took the quilt to cover her body, and closed her eyes to rest.
On the other side, Sei Itō, who left Qin Qing's bedroom, used Instant Transmission to return to the room where Shan Lan was, and gently returned to the bed, and put his arm on Shan Lan's body again, and closed his eyes to rest.
Nothing happened that night, and the next day came in a blink of an eye.
In the morning, with a slight tremor in her eyelids, Shan Lan woke up from her sleep. She opened her eyes and looked at the strange roof in front of her. For a while, she couldn't distinguish between reality and dream.
But very quickly, he heard the sound of light breathing beside his ear and turned to look at the person beside him.
"Huh." Then, Shan Lan, who was completely relaxed, exhaled a long breath, and a light smile appeared on her face. However, the smile didn't last long. In the next moment, Shan Lan's expression suddenly froze, and her face was full of shyness.
Because at that moment, a strange feeling secretly passed from her chest to the bottom of her heart.
"That despicable guy." Shan Lan muttered bitterly in a low voice. But not sure if it was because she was too shy or something else, Shan Lan didn't wake Sei Itō who seemed to be sleeping soundly, nor did she move away Sei Itō's evil hand that reached into her lapel. She still let that big hand press on her chest.
And Sei Itō, who had already woken up the moment Shan Lan woke up, secretly smiled, and mischievously rubbed Shan Lan's chest again. Then, when Shan Lan's face was getting redder, he groaned and opened his eyes as if he had just woken up. He looked at Shan Lan's face, who was biting her lips and closing her eyes.
"Good morning." Sei Itō called with a smile.
Shan Lan's eyelids trembled slightly, and she turned her head to the side shyly. She said softly, "Hurry up and move your evil hand away."
"Oh, oh." Sei Itō pretended to be stupid and responded. Then, he pulled his hand away, sat up, and casually explained, "Sorry, I'm used to it."
Shan Lan didn't know what to say. She lowered her head, sat up, and quickly walked off the bed.
"Let's go, I'll take you to wash up." At this time, Sei Itō also turned around and walked to Shan Lan's side. He naturally wrapped his arms around Shan Lan's waist and walked her out of the room.
"I can walk by myself." Shan Lan said softly.
"I know. But you don't know any martial arts. In broad daylight, I can only sneak out with you in my arms. "Sei Itō ignored her and casually explained.
At this time, although the women of the big clans would practice a few moves, but those who were truly proficient in martial arts were still in the minority. Therefore, apart from those few people, most of the women of the big clans were only a few times stronger than ordinary women. At most, they could fight against men, which was not enough to be used as a weapon. Naturally, they would not be able to do dangerous work like jumping from roof to roof.
Hearing Sei Itō's words, Shan Lan didn't say anything else. She could only lower her eyes and let Sei Itō carry her.
In this way, under Sei Itō's lead, the two smoothly sneaked out of the Qin Estate and reappeared on the streets of Xianyang City.
"Let's go." Sei Itō let go of Shan Lan's body and held her hand.
"Okay." Shan Lan raised her head and looked at Sei Itō's face. She responded in a low voice and followed Sei Itō like a little wife. Finally, like drops of water falling into a pond, they disappeared into the streets of Xianyang City.
The surrounding hawking was still the same. It was a peaceful scene.
