Yi Chenjing was puzzled that Bai Qige returned to Lianchenxuan after him. Seeing that her face was pale and a little dazed, she immediately felt that something was wrong.
"Where have you been? Did you meet someone?" Bai Qige, Yi Chenjing, who grabbed Bai Qige and walked in a hurry without noticing him in the courtyard, spoke urgently, and her face was filled with worry as she furrowed her brows.
The palace is always in danger for her. He can't keep her completely safe when he's around, let alone when he's not around. Furthermore, Bai Qige has a terrible habit of reporting good news but not bad news. She always hides any bad things from him and takes the responsibility alone. Chen Jing has protested about this but was always regarded as unavoidable and worried.
"It's nothing. I'll tell you after I sort out the clues." Bai Qige gently opened Yi Chenjing's hand and forced out a smile, "Why don't you see Zhan Ting?" [
"After we went to the inn to pick up Master Ye and Li'er, Fu Chu will stay in the palace. We can't let the two of them live outside. It's dangerous and there's no one to take care of them." Yi Chenjing softened her tone slightly but was still worried, "You don't look good. Why is it so serious?"
Bai Qige avoided answering: "Let's go to Fu Chu first. There are some things I still don't understand clearly. Let's see what he thinks."
It was easier said than done to get the words out of Bai Qige's mouth that she didn't want to say. Yi Chenjing gave up decisively. Anyway, Bai Qige promised him that she would talk to him later, which meant that she didn't intend to hide it. Maybe she really hadn't figured it out yet. Let's start by talking about it. She habitually held the whole small of him. The slight coolness of the circle of palms made the late autumn chill even deeper. Yi Chenjing sighed and said, "Go ahead and put on some clothes. I'll wait for you here."
If Yi Chenjing hadn't said anything, Bai Qige hadn't noticed that she was shivering. The coldness after the autumn rain was getting into her clothes bit by bit. It was as cold as her heart as it stuck to her skin. Bai Qige nodded and withdrew from the warm palm. Crossing her arms, she walked towards the bedroom. Behind her, Yi Chenjing quietly watched her slim figure walk out of the door, suddenly raised her fist and hit the wall beside her.
As a man, it feels extremely useless to be unable to protect the woman he loves.
Huixi House in the corner of Lianchenxuan has been unoccupied for a long time. Not long after Bai Qige moved in with Yi Chenjing, Yu Che also moved into the wing room. Fu Chu decided to enter the palace, so Lianchenxuan was re-cleaned and used. Thinking about Fu Chu's character, Fu Chu decided to enter the palace. Yi Chenjing, an ordinary person, specially ordered his servants to plant many exotic flowers and herbs outside the courtyard of Huixiju and opened a small garden in the courtyard. The entire Huixiju was re-decorated and given a new look inside and out. Fu Chu was sitting in the courtyard. Taking care of flowers and plants is not much different from when I was in Xi Chu
When Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige arrived at Huixiju, Fu Chu was still squatting beside the flowers and grass, not knowing what to observe. Hearing the footsteps, he got up and turned around. His face was muddy and blank, which made Bai Qige and Qige couldn't help laughing. A rare smile appeared on her bloodless face.
"The Emperor and Yi Chenxuan have made some moves recently. I can't see through the stakes. Let me ask you if you have any ideas." After briefly asking about Fu Chu's current situation, Bai Qige directly explained the purpose of her visit.
"Sister Bai refers to the fact that the fifth prince's concubine was made a concubine, right? Yesterday, His Highness mentioned it to me. I thought about it all night, and I wasn't very clear. There were too many human feelings mixed in. It was difficult to judge the purpose of the emperor and the fifth prince for a while. "
Bai Qige took Fu Chu to sit at the stone table in the courtyard. Every move he made was intimate. She had long noticed the changes in Fu Chu. After swearing allegiance that day, Fu Chu no longer called him Big Brother Yi Chenjing as before, but changed his name to Big Brother Yi Chenjing. Your Highness always felt a little unfamiliar when he heard this. In fact, Yi Chen Jing was more sensitive to such trivial matters than Bai Qi Ge. He ordered Zhan Ting to bring Ye Huawan and Li'er into the palace. It was for this reason that he sincerely wanted Fu Chu. Shen Junfang kept the descendants for his own use, and Fu Chu did not live up to his expectations. In the analysis and layout of many things, the gentle and gentle young man showed intelligence and strategies that were far higher than ordinary people. Yi Chenjing seemed to see Shen Junfang, the prodigy national master, again. shadow
"Sister Bai and I agree that the emperor does not really want to establish the fifth prince as the crown prince." When talking about business, Fu Chu's expression was serious and cautious, and he did not have the childishness of a boy of the same age. "It has been more than a month since His Highness returned to the palace, and before the Northern Expedition, the emperor He has revealed his intention to abdicate after unifying Zhongzhou. It stands to reason that at this time, a decision should be made whether to retain the crown prince or to establish a new crown prince. Now that the emperor has been delaying and delaying, he is still unwilling to issue an edict. Come to think of it, the previous rumors of changing the crown prince to the fifth prince are not so accurate. At least it shows that the emperor My determination is not very firm. As for the fact that the fifth prince's crimes were deliberately ignored by the emperor, I couldn't figure it out for a while. In comparison, the sudden pregnancy of the fifth prince's concubine should not be that complicated. After all... it cannot be done forcefully. "
Bai Qige frowned slightly: "Yi Chenxuan has a habit of cutting sleeves. According to Mrs. Qi, she is just Su Jinyan's substitute, so Yi Chenxuan has never allowed her to get pregnant. Now that Su Jinyan has betrayed the Qi family, it makes sense to be helped to the right position, but Yi Chen Xuan went all the way to report this matter to the emperor. I always feel that it is not that simple."
"Because Sister Bai is surprised by the fifth prince's untimely behavior, right?" Fu Chu asked calmly as if he could read Bai Qige's mind.
Bai Qige nodded
Yi Chenxuan looked very anxious when he sneaked into the Yao He Palace last time. How could he have the mood to deal with Mrs. Qi's pregnancy under such circumstances? Even if his prodigal son turned back and began to cherish the person beside him, why would he need to rush to tell Yao Huang? Having just escaped from house arrest, he should stay calm and make such a big show of attracting the attention of the entire palace. It seems that it does not do any good for Yi Chenxuan.
"We might as well think about it from the perspective of the fifth prince's fundamental purpose." Fu Chu sat upright and had the demeanor of a counselor. "The fifth prince is most anxious now to get the emperor to decide on the crown prince's dethronement. Then any action he takes will be based on this purpose. Sister Bai, I'm still here." I don’t know much about the various rules and habits in the palace. Do you know whether the fifth prince’s pregnancy will affect the crown prince’s dethronement or what disadvantages it will have for the current crown prince?”
The prince is the prince. Mrs. Qi is Mrs. Qi. Regardless of Mrs. Qi’s status and whether she has children, there seems to be no necessary connection with the prince. Bai Qige shook her head in confusion: "I can’t think of any pros and cons. Chen Jing, do you have any idea?"
Yi Chenjing pondered for a moment and then took a deep breath and looked at Bai Qige: "Qige, do you still remember the time when my father called you and me to the dormitory before the expedition? What my father said before leaving may have something to do with it if you think about it carefully."
"Before the expedition..." After a long time, Bai Qige couldn't recall it completely at once, frowning and thinking, the memories rushed back like a tide and went back to the dim room filled with false family affection. Back to the time when she still thought Yao Huang was a kind father [
As the memory was slowly recalled, through Yi Chenjing's reminder, important details that Bai Qige had ignored suddenly jumped out of his mind. At that time, Yaohuang had indeed mentioned one thing before the two of them embarked on the Northern Expedition. That thing had happened. Bai Qige's good impression of Yaohuang, which had worried her for a while, also began to dissipate from then on.
Emperor Yao said that when Yi Chenjing returns from the Northern Expedition, he will be crowned King of Beijing.
"Yi Chenxuan is forcing the emperor to make a decision." He suddenly realized it like an enlightenment.
According to the rules in the Yao Kingdom Palace, princes other than the prince must be crowned kings and leave the palace once they have children. Yi Chenxuan chose to reveal Mrs. Qi's pregnancy at this time in order to test Yao Huang's intentions. If Yao Huang really wanted him to succeed him The crown prince must be abolished and replaced by Yi Chenxuan before Mrs. Qi gives birth to a child. If there is another plan... then Emperor Yao will be faced with a dilemma.
Either state his intention to directly make Yi Chenxuan the prince and expel him from the palace, or continue to maintain an unclear attitude so that the former harem can still stay in the palace if Yi Chenjing has an heir, and people are questioning the old story that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Rules cause turmoil in the Sixth House
This move fell on Yao Huang's eye
Perhaps Yi Chenjing was familiar with the rules in the palace and had already thought of this possibility. On the surface, she was not as surprised as Bai Qige. After hearing the details of the situation, Fu Chu was also amazed by Yi Chenxuan's steady and ruthless acting style. : "I thought the fifth prince was just a bit cruel, but I didn't expect that he would be so scheming, do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and be good at taking advantage of all favorable conditions. Such a person is the most difficult to deal with. I really want to know how the emperor will deal with it."
"I don't know what my father is going to do. I only know that Qi Ge's clever idea has indeed taken effect." Yi Chenjing smiled after detecting Yi Chenxuan's sinister purpose.
Fu Chu was at a loss: "What the hell is the fifth prince's matter related to Sister Bai?"
"It's not just about the situation. If she hadn't had the courage to go to the Yaohe Palace to stimulate someone, it would probably be calm right now. How could my father be forced to talk about it?"
Fu Chu, who was already in a fog, became more and more confused when he looked at Yi Chenjing's unpredictable expression; then he looked at Bai Qige's unpredictable expression. Anyway, both of them smiled and said nothing, and their expressions were gentle and affectionate. The young man who was alone was completely ignored and sighed. Fu Chu held his chin pitifully and tried not to look at the two of them, concentrating on thinking about the puzzle in front of him.
The clearness and tranquility of Lianchenxuan did not affect other places. Similarly, the other palace in Yaoguo Palace was much colder.
"I can make you a princess and I can divorce you at any time. What should you do and what shouldn't you do? Think about it yourself. If a situation like last time happens, it won't be as simple as punishment." The bedroom, filled with incense and warm, was dimly lit. The curtain blurred the vision. The man with a hazy and cold face tied his belt and walked out of the bed. The smell of ynm lingered on the bed. Only a weak figure was left on the bed. The curtain was entangled with the clothes. When the clothes were rolled up, you could occasionally see the numbers on the fair skin. The woman with bruises and lingering breaths has numb eyes and an expression on her face as if she has lost all sense of pain.
If you suffer too much, you will become accustomed to despair and eventually become numb. What kind of good opportunities can a stunning woman from a brothel have in her life? Lying on a gorgeous and luxurious bed like this is already great luck.
After a long time, she pulled up the brocade quilt and covered her cold skin. Madam Qi wrapped herself in the quilt and crawled to Yi Chenxuan's side. Her tone was soft and flattering, with the same awe and flattery as always: "As long as the emperor does not order His Highness to be expelled from the palace and crowned the King, His Highness's position as Crown Prince will be just around the corner." Qi doesn’t dare to ask for the title of Crown Princess or that Her Highness is willing to allow this child to be born, even if Qi Qi’s status as Princess is revoked in the future, it doesn’t matter…”
Chu Chu's pitiful pleading failed to get Yi Chenxuan's tender care and a sneer, and he was completely in love.
"Whether I can give birth depends on your luck. Although the medicine can greatly shorten the pregnancy time, it is still poison. It is still unknown what kind of monster will fall on the ground. I don't want to be said to be the father of a monster." Tighten the brocade belt of my clothes tightly. The cold feeling across his palm made Yi Chenxuan couldn't help but think of Bai Qige's eyes. His eyes dropped and he pinched Mrs. Qi's smooth shoulder hard, and another bruise and blood mark appeared.
It was extremely disgusting to let a bed toy give birth to his flesh and blood. However, Yi Chenxuan had no choice. He urgently wanted to know whether his father wanted to pass the throne to him or was he was just waiting for the opportunity to get rid of his almost perfect son.
