Bai Qige sighed secretly, and then looked at Qiao Qingxu with a slightly more complicated look in her eyes.
It turns out that in Qiao Qingxu's view, Yi Chenjing turned out to be Zhan Ting's enemy, which means that without Zhan Ting's persistence, the Lingxi heroine would not have helped at all, and would even be hostile to Yi Chenjing.
?Bai Qige didn't know much or much about Zhan Ting. She knew that the Zhan family was convicted because of Jing Fei's brother and that Li'er's leg was broken by Yi Chenjing himself, but she understood that Yi Chenjing had no choice but to do so.
As for guilt, if we want to blame someone, we can only blame the world for what it is.
"Does Sister Qiao also know about Li'er?" Although the answer was obvious, Bai Qige still asked.
"Why don't you know? Although I have never seen that child, I have often heard it mentioned by Zhan Ting. I thought he sneaked into the palace to save his sister, but I didn't expect..." After the anger, he sighed. Qiao Qingxu, who had always behaved in a high-spirited manner,
Finally, he showed a sad expression, "I have been waiting for him in Qiaojiazhai for half a year. I didn't wait for his return, but I did wait for the news that he had become the bodyguard of the Seventh Prince."
There was no time to lament the uncharacteristic infatuation and resentment of the bold chivalrous woman, Bai Qige was surprised: "Did Zhan Ting live in Qiaojiazhai?"
Qiao Qingxu did not answer directly, but raised her arms and unhooked the deerskin armguard. Under the sleeves, the ink coat of arms was imprinted on the white wrist, which was particularly clear. Bai Qige had a vague impression of the coat of arms, as if it was on Zhan Ting's wrist.
There is also one, the pattern should be exactly the same.
"This is the mark of Qiaojiazhai. Anyone with this mark is the life and death brother of Qiaojiazhai." An inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Qingxu's mouth. For some reason, she looked quite lonely.
Zhan Ting had wandered around the world before becoming Yi Chenjing's subordinate. Bai Qige was somewhat surprised by this. After thinking about it, he thought it was natural. It is unlikely that all the kung fu that he had few opponents came from practicing behind closed doors. He should have practiced in various
He has been trained in hardships and dangers. But Bai Qige still finds it difficult to understand. Can a person with a personality like Zhan Ting really survive in the world of mixed fish and dragons?
Seemingly seeing Bai Qige's doubts, Qiao Qingxu was actually quite proud: "Don't think that he is too honest and easily bullied. No one has ever taken advantage of him before I met him. I still remember the first time I met him.
Just when that fool was being besieged, there were seven of them, none of whom were inferior to me in skill. The guy actually managed to kill them all with just a wooden stick, and then he sat there drinking tea as if nothing had happened. At that time
I just thought that the person I love must be as powerful as him so that he can protect Qiaojiazhai and my brothers with me. It’s a pity..."
"It's a pity that he doesn't understand romance and regards your infatuation as brotherhood."
It is said that people in the world are very passionate, but why can't they understand who is secretly interested in each other and who is deeply in love? Bai Qige suddenly felt lucky. Although she and Yi Chenjing had gone through many waves of torture, the two of them were suffering from emotional torment.
It didn't take long, maybe because they were both smart enough to see each other's thoughts, maybe because the palace needed trustworthy people to rely on each other, or maybe it was just because they were destined to be entangled forever.
"Zhan Ting is indeed too dull and honest, but he is not a stone man or a wooden man after all. He will understand Sister Qiao's thoughts one day." Looking back at Zhan Ting who was hesitating not far behind him, Bai Qige was confident.
With her here, Qiao Qingxu's wishes will never be disappointed. This can be regarded as a reward for their gratitude.
After staring at Bai Qige with a serious face for a long time, Qiao Qingxu smiled: "I feel friendly as soon as I see you. It's boring to death talking to those coy girls, but it's better to look at it and feel comfortable. Qi Ge
, if you are willing, we can become sisters, how about it?"
"Of course it's the best. I have brothers but no sisters. My two sisters died for their country in their early years. Besides, I also like Sister Qiao's cheerful personality. Being able to marry Jinlan is a great blessing." Bai Qige was overjoyed. She
In her previous life, what she longed for most in this life was her family. No matter whether they were related by blood or not, she very much hoped to get closer to Qiao Qingxu, so as not to feel like old friends at first sight. She lowered her head and thought for a while, then hesitantly said: "Since we are sworn friends to Jinlan,
What oath is needed?"
Qiao Qingxu was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily: "What do you want to swear? Kneel down and kowtow to the wooden stake? My silly sister, every oath is only for others to see. You just have me as your sister in your heart. Why bother?
Is this unnecessary? Listen, from now on you will be my sister, Qiao Qingxu. Sister, I am willing to fight for you. I will not spare anyone who dares to bully you!"
With Ning Xizui, a big benefactor, as her confidant, and the fearless Lingxi heroine as her sister, she has scolded the cold-tempered prince, beaten the hypocritical prince, who in the world can bully her?
?Yi Chenjing would occasionally take advantage, but now that she has such a fiery and aggressive sister... Thinking of Yi Chenjing's awe-inspiring look when she looked at Qiao Qingxu, Bai Qige couldn't help but laugh.
Probably because he was caught looking at Yi Chenjing, Bai Qige didn't say a word, but Qiao Qingxu put on a smile and said seriously: "It's okay, don't be afraid of anything. Even if your man dares to bully you, just tell your sister directly, I have to let you go."
He cannot become a eunuch, father-in-law."
It was originally a joke, but Bai Qige remembered that Qiao Qingxu had a prejudice against Yi Chenjing.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Qige shook her head: "Sister Qiao, Chen Jing is actually not bad in nature. He has many unavoidable difficulties in the royal family. He has always felt guilty about Li'er, but if he doesn't do that, Zhan Ting will die -
- Originally, the Emperor promised him a reward during the Northern Expedition, but he gave up many very important things and chose to ask the Emperor to let Li'er leave the palace. Even I felt it was a pity. He is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He was forced to be cruel but still couldn't let go.
In the end, I have a good nature, so I am willing to stay by his side and help him ascend to the position of prince at all costs."
"Okay, okay, I'm just angry that Zhan Ting would rather follow him than go back to Qiaojiazhai. I don't really hate it." Qiao Qingxu waved her hand, "Zhan Ting is a bit stupid, but his eyes are sharper than anyone else's.
, the person he is looking for is definitely not a treacherous person. If I don't approve of you, how can a man come to help? Silly sister, you are worrying too much."
Bai Qige's face turned red.
When it comes to Yi Chenjing, she easily gets confused. The truth is so obvious in front of her, but she uses the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman. She laughs at herself and looks into the distance. The towering mountains are rolling and the sky is wide.
It's wide, and it's not like the previous trail where there was only one trail with no way out.
The imperial capital, the palace, and hope are all within easy reach.
"Wait a minute." Qiao Qingxu suddenly frowned and tightened the reins. The white horse let out a low whistle, and before the voice fell, the graceful blue figure was already under the horse.
Seeing Qiao Qingxu and Bai Qige dismounting from their horses in front, Zhan Ting hurriedly jumped to the ground to stop Yi Chenjing, his vigilant eyes wandering around, and finally landed in the dense grass not far ahead.
"There is an ambush, Your Highness, be careful."
Following Zhan Ting's gaze, Yi Chenjing quickly discovered that there were traces of being trampled on in several patches of grass, but there were no footprints on the dirt road. It was obvious that someone was hiding among them and deliberately erasing the footprints. He tightened his eyes and looked slender.
Putting his fingers on the sword: "Zhan Ting, go protect Qi Ge."
Zhan Ting hesitated for a moment, and the figure that was slightly shorter than Yi Chenjing did not move at all. His wrists shook, and the two short and delicate daggers in the arrow sleeves fell into his hands. He had no intention of rushing to Bai Qige's side.
"I can protect myself. You go and protect Qi Ge. She doesn't know martial arts." Yi Chenjing repeated with an emphasis.
"No, the first person to protect is His Highness." Zhan Ting is rarely stubborn, but when he is stubborn, he cannot be persuaded, "Only when Your Highness is fine can the Princess feel at ease, and with Qingxu around, the Princess will never be hurt."
Reasoning with smelly and hard rocks is a sign of mental illness. Yi Chenjing was too lazy to talk nonsense, kicked the horse in the belly and ran quickly towards Bai Qige. Before he got close, he heard a string cracking and a cold arrow was fired towards him.
Sure enough, he was the main target.
Yi Chenjing subconsciously hid on the horse's back to avoid the cold arrow. Cold sweat dripped down Yi Chenjing's forehead. If he hadn't heard the sound of strings being played quietly on the mountain road and immediately dodged, the arrow might have killed him.
"Enter the woods!" Bai Qige yelled and jumped into the nearby trees first, followed by several other people who dispersed and rushed in nearby. For a while, there were only horses trampling on the mountain road and no one could be seen.
Bai Qige is not ranked in terms of kung fu, but she is definitely one of the best in terms of reaction ability. Which of the thrilling missions she has experienced as a special forces soldier is not more complicated and urgent than the situation at hand? You must know that no matter how fast the arrow is, it cannot catch the bullet, and no matter how cunning the enemy is, he cannot throw a bomb.
Facing the ambush, Bai Qige became the calmest and calmest among the people.
The mountain forest is quiet, with the occasional chirping of birds, and the wind rustling through the branches. Covered by large patches of weeds up to the knees, it is difficult to spot people hiding behind the trees.
Bai Qige gently took out the dagger and held it in her hand. She kept looking around with vigilant eyes. After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one appeared, she couldn't help but want to lean out. Qiao Qingxu quickly grabbed her with quick eyes and hands, and tried to lower her voice:
"Why are you anxious? Although they are in the dark, we are not in the open either. We have to escape and they want to kill. They are the ones who are anxious. They are the ones who can't wait first. You can just wait with peace of mind."
"We can't wait. We only have a moment at most." Looking worriedly at the direction from which she came, Bai Qige clenched her palms and said, "Mr. Ning is still behind."
In order to rush on the road as quickly as possible, Bai Qige and others changed their horses, leaving only Ning Xizui driving the carriage to follow. At this moment, he should be left behind some distance, while Feng Wujiang was guarding the truck further away. Ning Xizui
Bai Qige doesn't have any skills in boxing and kicking. Bai Qige is worried that he will rush into the enemy's ambush rashly. Even though he is getting more and more comfortable in using the copper basin and keeps it by his side anytime and anywhere, it is completely nonsense to think of resisting the opponent's strong bow.
.
No matter what, Ning Xizui cannot be injured.
"Sister Qiao, if the opponent shows up, how likely is it that you can kill him with one blow?"
Qiao Qingxu raised her head suspiciously: "As long as I show up, I can kill him with one arrow. Even the fastest rabbit can't dodge my arrow. But we have just fought, and they will not take the initiative to show up in order to maintain their advantage - Qi Ge
,Qi Ge! What are you doing?!"
"I'll force them to show up, and you'll do the rest."
Bai Qige suddenly stood up, sheathed her dagger, took out the fire stick and held it in her palm, and ran towards the horse quickly before Qiao Qingxu rushed over to catch her, her white figure fluttering thinly.
Behind the tree trunk a hundred steps away, a pair of eyes lit up with light, and the bowstring in his hand was fully drawn silently.
