"Really? Can I stay as long as I want?" Ye Huawan was overjoyed and jumped up from the chair, with two blushes on her young face.
Yi Chenjing nodded, not noticing the flash of surprise on Bai Qige's face.
"Okay Ye Zi, Sister Bai just woke up. She needs more rest. What will it look like if you continue to make such noise?" Fu Chu pulled Ye Huawan and smiled at Bai Qige, "Sister Bai recover from her injuries. Me and Ye Zi will go right away. Prepare things for the road. If you need anything, just call me - Master, you should take a rest." Turning around, half teasing and half persuading, Fu Chu said helplessly to Shen Yuqiu: "Didn't you say that these two days Is it time to plant new herbs? Come on, I’ll plant them for you.”
Among the three masters and apprentices, Fu Chu understands the world the most, especially when it comes to relationships. Fu Chu thinks more deeply than Shen Yuqiu, so he drove his master and junior sister away so that Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige could have a relationship. Being alone in the space, she can explain everything she wants to say clearly. Although she is young, her eyes are sharp. From Bai Qige's dazed expression by the well that day and Yi Chenjing's abnormal behavior after that, it is not difficult to see that this pair of children There was some problem between the dragon and the phoenix, who were so well matched, and it has not been resolved so far, otherwise Bai Qige would not have alienated Yi Chenjing intentionally or unintentionally.
After watching the three masters and apprentices with different expressions leave, Yi Chenjing picked up the porridge and silently brought it to Bai Qige's mouth. Bai Qige pushed it away with her hands and refused to swallow a bite.
"Your body is yours, don't hold on to it, you won't even see the blood on your face." Yi Chenjing stubbornly held the bowl and refused to put it down. Yi Chenjing coaxed and persuaded in a soft voice. Bai Qige couldn't bear his gentle and considerate attitude. , reluctantly drank a few mouthfuls of porridge.
Wiping the marks on her lips, Bai Qige frowned slightly: "Didn't the Poison Doctor refuse to save me? Why did you suddenly change your mind? Did you make any promise to him?"
With Yi Chenjing's cold temper, it would be even harder for him to be humble and beg for help. Even if he reluctantly opens his mouth, he will definitely hate the other person. How can he get along with the poisonous doctor like he is now? What Bai Qige fears most is that he agrees in a hot-headed manner. What does the Poison Doctor want? Those aloof hermit-type characters all have weird tempers. Who knows if the Poison Doctor has any harsh conditions or requirements in exchange? She doesn't want Yi Chenjing to pay too much for this. She has nothing to give him. No, I can't afford it at all.
"What promise can I make to him? If I give him everything I have, that guy won't even raise his eyelids to take a look."
After Bai Qige lost too much blood and fell into a coma, Yi Chenjing stayed with her. He watched her while she slept. She hadn't had a drop of water for two days. When her heart returned to her stomach, she immediately felt hungry and didn't care about the bowl. The porridge in it was leftover from Bai Qige's meal, so she wolfed it down with pickled vegetables.
He is the prince of a country, the most noble person besides the emperor. Even when he was a hostage, he never fell to the point of eating leftovers. Even if he knew that the porridge was her leftovers, he would not mind swallowing it. Bai Qige still I can't help but feel distressed, cold fingers climb up the thin cheeks, lingering between the haggard brows.
She remembered Yi Chenjing's kindness to her, but because she remembered it so clearly, she felt uneasy. She didn't know whether she was qualified to have his special favor.
"You have a good rest these two days. Zhan Ting will be here soon after receiving the news. You will be busy by then." Yi Chenjing put down the empty rice bowl, grabbed Bai Qige's finger on her forehead, and wrapped it carefully in In the warm palm, it seemed as if she would run away as soon as I let go.
After briefly explaining to Bai Qige the identities and relationships of Shen Yuqiu, Qing Xu, Shen Junfang and others, Yi Chenjing leaned on the bedside tiredly, the dark circles under his eyes silently confirming the fact that he had not had a good rest for a long time. Bai Qige hesitated for a moment and gently Pushing Yi Chenjing's shoulder: "Go and take a nap, you're too tired."
"It's fine here. I can't let go if you're not around."
"Then sleep here, we can't endure it any longer." Bai Qige moved inward and made a place for Yi Chenjing, "Your injury hasn't healed yet. If you continue like this, you will fall ill sooner or later. It's been a waste of time." The journey back to the imperial capital."
Yi Chenjing closed her eyes and raised a smile, and suddenly pulled Bai Qige into her arms.
"I'm fine, Qi Ge, I'm really fine." After many days of fatigue, Yi Chenjing's face was filled with happiness. Bai Qi Ge struggled for a few times and then stopped moving, and the two of them were half lying on the bed, leaning against each other. On the Internet, Yi Chenjing cherished such a peaceful time so much that she didn't even want to waste a moment. Her voice was clear and elegant as if she was talking in her sleep: "I never thought that it would be so easy to stay away from the flames of power. Maybe I was wrong all along. , you shouldn’t fight for the throne at all, living in seclusion in the mountains like Poison Doctor is a good choice.”
Looking for a secluded countryside to hide away from the world, without having to worry about open and secret fights, and spend the rest of her life leisurely looking at each other every day. This kind of life is what every woman who has experienced strong winds and dirty power struggles longs for? Yi Chenjing is waiting for Bai Qige to reveal herself I smile and look forward to the future, but I don’t want to wait for a long silence and a sigh.
"Why did you lie to me?"
The calm expression froze on his face, gradually turning into fatigue. Yi Chenjing rubbed his forehead and raised his eyes to look into those clear eyes.
"I really can't hide it from you...you always know what I think."
"It's good to live a life without fighting against the world, but that's not what you want. How many humiliations have you endured for so many years of keeping a low profile? How can you give up with your character and temperament?" When it comes to Yi Chenjing's thoughts, Bai Qige treasures them all, and they seem to be more precious than him. As if he knew more, he clearly didn't believe what Yi Chenjing said just now, "Everyone has his own destiny. Poison doctors can be hermits, but you can't. Firstly, you have the ambition to bring peace to the world and have paid a lot for it. Secondly, Come on, you have the talent to govern the world - at least I think you do. You don't have to worry about me. If I don't want you to rule the world, how can I stay by your side? The agreement between you and me has long lost its meaning. If I stay, it means that I hope you will have a future. Make a difference instead of being a mediocre prince in obscurity."
Bai Qige's fingertips were cold and pale on her palm. Yi Chenjing clenched them lovingly, but her body temperature could not warm the slender hand.
She knew him too well, his kindness, his evil, his ambition, his ability, everything was seen in her eyes, and she never missed anything. He also wanted to see her as clearly as Bai Qige. , I want to read her thoughts from her calm eyes, what is she thinking, but no matter how hard I try, I can't do it - if I can do it, I don't have to worry about guessing her thoughts anymore.
Kissing her smooth forehead, Yi Chenjing hugged Bai Qige tighter: "I just want to test whether you want to live that kind of life. I thought about it carefully when you were sleeping, and it seemed that you never lived a day when you were with me. In a good life, it may seem like you are well-dressed and well-fed, with servants to serve you, but in fact, you are working hard, and you have to face conspiracies and fights that have nothing to do with you from time to time. I am afraid that you will be tired, afraid that you will retreat, and even more afraid that you will hold back any grievances and sorrows you have. Not to mention, your temper is always tolerant."
Bai Qige rested her head on Yi Chenjing's shoulder and remained silent.
She was indeed tired and tired, and she could only hold on because his imperial career failed.
To be fair, Yi Chenjing is the most suitable person to be an emperor among the people she has ever seen. He is brave yet calm, smart yet cautious, his splendor can eclipse the sun and the moon, and his magnanimity can swallow up mountains and rivers. He is the destined emperor.
Zhongzhilong is not an exaggeration at all. When it comes to shortcomings, Yi Chenjing only has one - he is too clear about love and hate, and his personality is always somewhat contradictory and extreme. This makes him gain but also lose a lot of things. All she has to do is
Polish off his too sharp brilliance and make him a flawless king to dominate the country.
Suddenly thinking of something, Bai Qige raised her head: "By the way, aren't you the most annoying person who talks too much? Why are you treating Miss Ye so specially?"
"I am a wicked person, and I have ulterior motives. You should be able to see that although Fu Chu is young, he has amazing talents. The poisonous doctor promised to lend him to me for a year. After that, it is up to him to decide whether to keep him or not. That Master Ye
Jiucheng is his sweetheart, so if I want to keep Master Ye, he will definitely choose to stay." Yi Chenjing gently raised Bai Qige's chin, "What, are you jealous? I thought you were a very generous person.
woman."
These words were originally said as a joke, but Bai Qige didn't expect to take them seriously, and her face turned cold for a moment.
"I've never been a generous person. I'm sorry to disappoint you."
"Why are you taking it seriously? I'm just kidding." Yi Chenjing took a breath and quickly took her back into her arms, "I wish you were jealous. Suyan is virtuous and gentle, and there is nothing to say about you sisters being compatible; but Surao is scheming.
Cunning, you have caused trouble many times before. I have been waiting for you to ask me to write a letter of divorce to drive her away. But after waiting for so long, you didn’t say a word. I really wonder if you are so generous that you can even share it with me.
The point.”
Bai Qige chuckled lightly, plainly and tastelessly.
"Your heart only belongs to one person, and no one can take it away from you."
Unfortunately, that person is not her.
Yi Chenjing didn't notice the implication. She lay down on her side and buried her head in Bai Qige's neck. Her breath was warm, and she fell asleep peacefully after a while.
Bai Qige looked at the empty room quietly, her heart numb.
Yi Chenjing thought too well of her, thinking that she was magnanimous and kind-hearted and would not compete with any woman, but he didn't know that now she was showing the most terrifying and ugliest side of a woman, jealous and twisted, for the sake of baseless speculation.
Thinking wildly, even making false assumptions and getting very upset about it.
She was not such a person, so when did she start to become a jealous woman? What’s even more ridiculous is that the person she was jealous of was actually a person who had been dead for many years.
In a towering mountain in Western Chu, there are turbulent waves hidden under the gentle breeze and rising sun, while in the most prosperous city in Zhongzhou, there is a place where there is silence despite the violent wind and rain.
"General Xiao has confirmed that the two corpses in Lingyun City are not the seventh prince and his concubine, and is currently leading a search along the road; the person who gave the false testimony died suddenly and mysteriously in a local government prison before he could be tried. The cause of death is unknown, and his wife must be acquitted.
Under investigation. Your Majesty, do you want to order a large-scale search?"
The deep and resonant voice woke up Yaohuang who was taking a nap. His wrist trembled and he almost knocked his head on his head. With sleepy eyes, he looked at Ou Suiliang who was bowing to sue. Yaohuang reacted for a long time before lazily waving his hand: "No, Jing'er.
If he is still alive, he will definitely find a way to come back. Hasn't this matter not been announced to the public yet? If my decree makes the whole city uproar, it would be a bad idea to alert the snake - the people who want to harm him are probably not just one or two!"
Ou Suiliang nodded thoughtfully, worry flashing across his face.
"Suiliang, you choose a hundred forbidden troops to go to Wuhuan Mountain. Be careful and don't get discovered." He wrote a letter and handed it to Suiliang. Yaohuang coughed twice, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Jing'er, do you think that no one can find Yun'er if you hide her there? I just hope it's not too late to go now, otherwise... I will never be able to repay her guilt in this life."
