Yi Chenjing and Concubine Jing both advocated concealing the attack on the nunnery and not reporting it. First of all, Lianchenxuan's status in the Royal Palace of Yao Kingdom was very low. Concubine Jing, who had been imprisoned for many years before being released from the cold palace, was too cautious and did not want Emperor Yao to think of her.
The troubles would bring trouble to her son, but Yi Chenjing planned to sit still and wait for the other party to reveal his flaws.
Before the nunnery is repaired, Fairy Mei Mei will live in the Lianchen Pavilion. Since there are people giving lectures to the concubine, Bai Qige can have free time to concentrate on her own affairs.
Probably as a reward for risking his life to save the concubine, Yi Chenjing gave Bai Qige a certain freedom of movement as promised. The usually deserted and simple Huixi Residence was actually cleaned. The servant Yu Che was finally able to get rid of his busy schedule and occasionally stay in the room.
I let Bai Qige polish her ink and watch her sketch.
"The little eunuch in charge of the accounts in the warehouse said that there has not been a large amount of gunpowder coming into the Yaohe Palace recently, but the prince said that if he wanted to play with firecrackers, he would have to go a lot." Yu Che polished his ink while reporting on the people who had descended into the world today.
According to the information I got, "I also heard that every prince has retainers and dead men under his command. Among them, the prince and the fifth prince have the most people. However, the fifth prince is known to be humble and polite, and will never do anything so ruthless.
things."
"You know people well but don't know their hearts. How many times have you met him? All princes have come through overt and covert struggles. How well can you understand his deep scheming?" Bai Qige put down her pen and looked a little stern.
Yu Che was obviously unconvinced. The grinding force fluctuated and the ink spattered everywhere: "I don't understand, but I have eyes. The fifth prince I saw is gentler and more reliable than anyone else. No matter whether you are here or not, miss."
it's the same."
Bai Qige shook her head helplessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Not only Yu Che, how many people in and outside the palace dislike the fifth prince Yi Chenxuan? He has a gentle and handsome appearance, and a gentle and generous personality. Although his boxing and kicking skills are not very good, his literary talent can be said to be second only to Prince Yuan.
Better than other princes.
Not perfect, but almost impeccable.
Yu Che didn't know about Yi Chenxuan's confession, which was hard to tell. However, as Yu Che said, she could see by herself if she had eyes. The last time Bai Qige was almost tortured to death by Yi Chenjing, it was Yi Chenxuan who came to the rescue regardless of his identity.
She took care of her everywhere, and after that, she sent people many times to bring medicinal materials and supplements to help Bai Qige heal her body. In the eyes of the ice-snow and smart maid, those burning eyes were no different from those of any lover in the world.
He moved a stool and sat next to Bai Qige. Yu Che, who was used to being so close, leaned on the table with his lips curled up: "Miss, the fifth prince has far more power in the palace than the seventh prince. If you ask, he will definitely find a way to take us away."
You were brought out of Lianchenxuan to live in Yaohing Palace. Sometimes when I go out to do errands, I always see the fifth prince wandering around. He has always wanted to see you. If it weren’t for the fact that you are the seventh prince’s son, I guess the fifth prince would have already—
-Well--"
A large piece of peach pastry was stuffed into Yu Che's mouth. Bai Qige glanced at it angrily: "Eat, eat, stop your mouth."
Yu Che knew that she didn't like to hear it, so he shrugged his shoulders and stopped being annoying. After swallowing the peach cake, he pointed at the exquisite snacks on the plate with ulterior motives: "These are all sent by Mrs. Qi. Some people are worried that you won't be able to eat well and specially come from
Zhao Guo invited a pastry chef, but he met a man who was neither long-sighted nor long-hearted, and all his infatuation was eaten up by the dog."
Bai Qige ignored Yu Che's complaints and squinted her eyes: "How could he know what I like to eat?"
"Uh..." Yu Che opened his mouth for a long time without answering, looking around with an embarrassed look.
Guarding yourself day and night, you can't guard against the little spies around you. Bai Qige picked up the plate and pushed it into Yu Che's arms, pretending to be angry: "If you come here secretly and take his things in the future, don't stay here anymore. I can't even hide. You
You still cause trouble for me randomly."
"It's her fault for what she did. I asked Yu Che for help." A man suddenly walked in outside the door. His simple clothes could not hide his grace and nobility. He had a handsome face and a gentle smile. He held a large food box in his hand. Yu Che saw that
The man came in and hurriedly closed the door, carrying the food box and brushing the snow off the man's clothes, as diligently as if he was the real master.
It seems that Yi Chenxuan has completely gained Yu Che's trust, and I don't know what means he used. A smart and intelligent person like Yu Che actually has a crush on him. You can't be rude when you come. Bai Qige stood up and gave up her seat.
, without leaving any trace, he opened the distance between the two people: "The fifth prince is busy with official matters. If you have anything to do, just let the servants do it. Why do you need to work hard?"
"I'm just passing by. I wanted to see my seventh brother."
Yi Chenjing went to Yaohuang's study early in the morning, and there was no one passing by with a food box. Bai Qige knew that Yi Chenxuan came specifically to see her. Although she felt warm in her heart, she still maintained an indifferent expression on her face: "Your Highness
Since he is not here, the fifth prince should go back earlier. Sister Qi is alone in the Yaohe Hall and it is very deserted. What the husband of the fifth prince has done is too heartless."
How could Yi Chenxuan not understand the polite refusal? He turned around and pointed at the food box and said to Yu Che: "Yu Che, the hibiscus cake inside needs to be heated before eating. Eating it cold is not good for the body."
Yu Che has been a maid for many years and is more ingenious than other women. Naturally, she understands that Yi Chenjing is not interested in drinking. He hurriedly picked up the food box and said with a clever smile: "I will take it to the dining room. The fifth prince will wait a moment."
." After finishing speaking, the charming figure flashed out of the room, closing the door specially before leaving.
Yi Chenjing always suspected that Bai Qige and Yi Chenxuan were secretly colluding. If Zhan Ting had nothing else to do, he would be outside to monitor her. Bai Qige was worried about causing further misunderstandings, so she quietly approached the door and wanted to open it. She didn't want to just reach out and do it.
He was caught by Yi Chenxuan and held close to his chest.
"Qi Ge, I heard that you were ambushed outside the palace? Were you injured? My seventh brother came here at my inconvenience. I have been anxious to death for the past two days because I was afraid that you would be injured and there would be no one to take care of you. Fortunately.
Father is busy planning the expedition and summoned his seventh brother to the study, otherwise I really don’t know when I will see you again." Yi Chenxuan, who had looked calm just now, suddenly became excited, and his hands became tighter and tighter.
.
"Fifth prince, respect yourself." Bai Qige tried to retract her hand, but Yi Chenxuan was a man after all and was much stronger, so she had no choice but to let him pull her. With a slight sigh, Bai Qige relaxed her strength and lowered her voice: "I don't care about the ambush.
I have suspected that it was you, but there is no evidence. If possible, I hope I will never be your enemy."
Yi Chenxuan was at a loss for a while, and then smiled bitterly: "It is essential to be on guard against others. It is well known that princes are wary of each other, and they also understand each other tacitly. I do have distrust for my seventh brother, but I can swear to God, I
Yi Chenxuan has never done anything to hurt his brothers and sisters - even if he is forced to take action, with you here, I will never let anyone create the slightest danger. Qi Ge, the biggest difference between my seventh brother and me
The contradiction is you. No matter what, I will find a way to get you out of here. As long as you are willing, I don’t need wealth, status, or power. With you by my side, this life is enough."
I wish to win the heart of one person and stay together forever.
It is easy to find a priceless treasure, but it is rare to find a lover. How many women in the world spend their entire lives just to find their true love and stay with them until they grow old. How many lingering and pathos, shocking and unrequited love have been passed down through the ages. If someone is willing to sacrifice his country and the world for the one he loves, this will be the end of the world.
Such friendship is worth sacrificing one's life.
However, she, Bai Qige, couldn't.
With his head slightly bowed and his temples beautiful, Yi Chenxuan stroked Bai Qige's cheek with his fingers and gently held the silent woman in his arms.
Bai Qige did not struggle and greedily enjoyed the short period of peace.
Love it or hate it, I just want to completely relax and rest, even for a moment.
"Whether what you say is true or false, I will keep it in my heart forever." Bai Qige leaned on her strong shoulder and closed her eyes slightly, and made up her mind to crush her dream every word, "But, I will not be with you."
He pushed Yi Chenxuan away violently, his calm eyes were as firm as iron: "You remember, I must also remember that I am the daughter of the Bai family and Yi Chenjing's wife. I have my own responsibilities and
If I have to pay a huge price with my family's life for this love, I would rather die alone and never see you again."
Yi Chenxuan was caught off guard and pushed back a few steps. The pain on his face was obvious: "It turns out you are doing it for the Bai family. I should have thought of it earlier. The Zhao Kingdom is already a distant vassal state. Although the taxation, military affairs and administration are left to my father.
It is the seventh brother who is in charge, but it is the seventh brother who is actually taking care of it. It is just a matter of words for him to do harm to the Bai family... No wonder, no wonder King Zhao still hasn’t punished the Bai family after so long, the seventh brother is threatening you! "
"It's a waste of all your calculations, but you can't even see such a simple thing." Bai Qige calmed down her emotions and looked at the plate of peach cakes on the table, "I have said everything that needs to be said, now I just want to live quietly.
, in order to protect the survival of the Bai family, so please don't interfere with my life anymore. You still have Sister Qi to pity, whether it's true or not, give up this so-called infatuation."
The sudden confession seemed to be difficult for Yi Chenxuan to accept. He stood there for a long time without any reaction. Bai Qige opened the door, her intention of expelling the guest was very obvious.
A maid in the courtyard was cleaning the snow. When she heard the sound of the door, she turned her head naturally, but her subconscious movement froze for a moment. She covered her mouth and stared at the unbelievable scene in the room with wide eyes.
The woman who was nominally the seventh prince's princess was being held tightly in the arms of the fifth prince. Even though her back was turned, it was not difficult to see that the kiss was passionate and seamless.
The arms around her waist carried irresistible power, and her chest that was close to her felt as if it was on fire. The four lips touching each other evoked panic and panic. Bai Qige's mind went blank as if it had been robbed. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly in front of her eyes, and her handsome face was so close that she couldn't stand it.
No matter how close he was, he desperately sought the remaining moisture on her lips.
Bai Qige never expected that Yi Chenxuan would suddenly hug her, let alone that he would make such an outrageous move. You know, this was in Lianchenxuan, under Yi Chenjing's nose, was Yi Chenxuan crazy?!
Before she could react from her shock, the hot lips had already left her, and the soft words in her ears were like sweet words of love, but they grabbed Bai Qige's heart.
"Qi Ge, if I say I have a way to save the Bai family, are you willing to leave your seventh brother and be with me?"
