Bai Haocheng's words had a vaguely ominous flavor. Both Bai Qige and Yu Che were very concerned about it. They followed him all day and night without daring to relax. They felt a little relieved when they saw that he didn't do anything unexpected. [.!
However, Bai Qige could no longer visit the city. The angry people trapped in the war surrounded the palace and demanded that the Bai family hand over Bai Qige and surrender to the Yao army. In desperation, Bai Haocheng could only secretly hide her and Yu Che in a house outside the palace.
, facing the people of the capital alone and persuading him heartily.
"The second young master has lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets are sunken, and his complexion is getting worse day by day." Yu Che, who was in a daze listening to the noisy people outside the hospital, murmured to himself. His hands were twisted together and kept rubbing, and his nervousness and worry were obvious.
Bai Qige had already known what the little girl was thinking, and she felt deeply depressed. However, she also understood that she could not control the current situation, so she could only lean on the bedside with the Cuihuang Sword in her arms, recalling over and over the few happy and trivial things in her memory.
"Crown Princess! Crown Princess!" The hurried shouts outside the courtyard came from far and near. Qiao Erhe rushed into the room rashly, almost knocking Yu Che over and fell in front of Bai Qige, "Princess, it's not good! Over there with the Yaojun army.
The news was released that as long as General Bai is willing to hand over the Crown Princess, he will withdraw his troops, and now the people have broken into the palace to cause trouble!"
Bai Qige almost couldn't lift it up in one breath. She paused, gritted her teeth and tucked the Cuihuang Sword behind her waist: "I'm going to the palace right now."
"No, Miss can't go out!" Before Qiao Erhe could stop him, Yu Che stood in front of Bai Qige, with red eyes on his pretty face, "The Second Young Master has told Miss not to go out, those people are going crazy.
I can't reason with them at all, so I won't let the young lady die!"
"Yu Che, get out of the way. Do you know what's going on now? There's no way this matter can be solved if I don't come forward!"
"If it doesn't work, it won't work! I won't get out of the way even if I die!"
Qiao Erhe was originally here to inform the situation, but he didn't expect that it would lead to a fierce quarrel between Bai Qige and Yu Che, the master and servant. They were stunned for a moment, so Yu Che suddenly used his strength to push Bai Qige aside and didn't react.
, watching Bai Qige hit the edge of the table hard and unable to move for a long time.
"What are you staring at? Are you stupid? You don't want to help!" Yu Che quickly pushed Qiao Erhe out of the room. Taking advantage of Bai Qige's bending over in pain, he closed the door with a bang and picked it up from the ground next to him.
Pick up a big iron lock.
With a bang, the lock cylinder was closed, the light was cut off, and Bai Qige was locked in the room.
Bai Qige had previously wondered why the windows in this house were all nailed shut with wooden boards. It was only when Yu Che locked the door that she suddenly realized that it turned out that all these were arranged in advance to seal the windows or the large iron locks that shouldn't be there.
Well, there is also a door that is much thicker than ordinary people... Someone has long planned to lock her in the room.
"Yu Che, Yu Che, open the door! Open the door quickly!" Bai Qige ignored the pain on her body and threw herself on the door panel, beating it in panic. Her voice was more nervous than ever before, "Did your second brother ask you to do this? Listen to me Yu Che.
Che, second brother must be doing something stupid, please open the door and let me out quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"
The door panel was vibrating from the beating. Yu Che leaned against the door and raised his head. Two tears couldn't stop sliding down his cheeks. After holding on for a long time, Yu Che held his sleeves to wipe away the tears, pursed his lips and searched from the corner.
Get an iron chain and wrap it around the iron lock.
Qiao Erhe was stunned: "Yu, Miss Yuche... what are you..."
"Don't ask so many questions. Come on, you are strong. Tighten the chain and be sure to lock the door." Yu Che handed one end of the chain to Qiao Erhe and ordered crisply.
"The Crown Princess is still inside..." Qiao Erhe murmured blankly, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
Yu Che saw that he was hesitant and refused to take action. In desperation, he picked up the hem of his skirt and kicked him. The tears that he had just gathered rolled down like a dam: "I told you to ask, I told you to ask! Why don't you lock it quickly!"
Do you want Miss to be safe? If so, just listen to me!"
After hearing that Bai Qige was safe and sound, Qiao Erhe no longer hesitated, nodded heavily and said "Yes", and used all his strength to wrap the iron chain around the door handle and iron lock.
The sound of shouts and curses outside the door reached Bai Qige's ears. The chaos in her heart turned into an ominous premonition and spread. She held the door tightly with both hands. Bai Qige almost lost her voice: "Stop making trouble, Yu Che, do you hear me!
Do you want to kill my second brother?!"
He was the person he had admired and loved the most since he was a child. How could he hope that something would happen to him? Even though he knew that Bai Qige was speaking out of anger, Yu Che was still wrapped up in the overwhelming grievance, and his tears flowed even more fiercely.
"Miss, can't you take a break? I'm also very tired and scared, but I still have to do this!" Yu Che kept wiping the tears rolling down with both hands, and Yu Che cried like a child, "I like Miss
I also like the second young master, and I don’t want to see anything happen to any of you. Miss, please just listen to Yu Che this time, okay? If the miss has a shortcoming, how can you let the second young master, the master, the madam and your highness live? They have done this for you.
To what extent, do you want their efforts to go to waste?" The sound of banging on the door gradually subsided, and Yu Che's crying became smaller and smaller. He sniffed hard, and his tone became a little more strong and calm: "Don't worry, Miss.
Well, isn't there still me? I will guard the second young master and prevent him from doing stupid things. Miss, you know, what Yu Che likes the most in this world is you and the second young master. It doesn't matter even if you lose this life.
, as long as the young lady and the second young master can be safe..."
Qiao Erhe stood aside blankly and kept looking at Yu Che, feeling more and more confused. Why could she still show such a clean smile even though she was crying?
"Miss, when everything is over, let's fly a kite by Ze Lake. You, me, and the second young master, we have agreed that no one will die."
When Rourou's voice became softer and softer, and she couldn't hear it clearly no matter how hard she tried, Bai Qige knew that Yu Che had left, and no one could predict what would happen after this farewell.
Or...or, she will be bound by guilt and regret for the rest of her life.
The capital of Zhao State, which was cut off from water and food, was shrouded in great panic. Many people had not had a full meal for two or three days. Because the river outside the city was blocked, they could not even get water to satisfy their hunger. What was even more terrifying was the dense crowds of people under the city.
Soldiers from the distant army, those foreign uninvited guests in red clothes and iron armor, set up four wooden frames two people high outside Liang Shi City. On each wooden frame were hung more than 20 bloody corpses, all of which were from the Zhao Kingdom who had fled the city.
common people.
"Fear is the best poison."
In the most inconspicuous corner of Yaojun, a carriage parked quietly. The man sitting in the carriage was leisurely listening to the chatter outside. He even poured a glass of wine happily and put it to his beautiful lips. Every movement was full of joy.
Elegant and calm.
"The prince's plan is really vicious. In comparison, the ones I did are not even one ten thousandth. If this continues, it won't be long before you no longer need to call you prince. Instead, you should change your name to His Highness the Crown Prince or directly call you the Emperor, right?"
"The enchanting woman beside her giggled, her charming appearance was indescribably enchanting, but there was a trace of unnaturalness flashing through her eyes.
It is not that Ruan Yanluo has never seen cruel people, and he has taken away other people's lives with his own hands, but it is the first time in his life that someone like Yi Chenxuan kills innocent people indiscriminately, and does not hesitate to let the world be stained with blood for his own selfish interests, but still laughs at it.
I saw it for the first time. Sometimes Ruan Yanluo would also wonder, is it good or bad to cooperate with the evil Yi Chenxuan? However, she has no choice. If she wants to save the Yanhu Kingdom from the encroachment of the Anling Kingdom, she must rely on
Yaoguo is the overlord of Zhongzhou, and the one who can truly dominate the world must be the strongest among the strongest, cold and tough, such as Yi Chenxuan.
"By the way, on the way here, I found that the young man under the prince was also rushing here. Just in case, I sent some people to deal with it." Ruan Yanluo stopped thinking and poured a glass of wine into Yi Chenxuan's glass.
Give it a gentle tap.
"Except for Zhan Ting and Ou Suiliang, everyone else doesn't need to take it seriously, just deal with it casually. How is the situation in the palace? There is nothing unusual, right?"
Ruan Yanluo shook his head and swept his fingertips across Yi Chenxuan's handsome face: "With Three Thousand He Wu here, even the general is helpless. Now even the queen has become a caged bird. You have the final say inside and outside the palace."
?It’s just that I don’t understand. Why go to such trouble if you want to put the prince and the woman named Bai to death? One moment you propose conditions for withdrawing troops, and the next you force the prince to write a letter of divorce. Why don’t you just ask the old emperor to issue an imperial edict to depose the prince?
Are you done yet? Just keep tossing and tossing, be careful something goes wrong."
"Oh, you simple-minded women who don't know how to enjoy themselves naturally don't understand." Yi Chenxuan sneered, his sarcasm undisguised, "If I want to kill them two, I can kill them at any time. It doesn't take much effort to raise my finger.
The power of blowing dust. There is always a goal to pursue in life. When the goal is achieved, it is inevitable to feel empty. After playing with Lao Qi for so long, except for the last time when he took advantage of the loophole, I have not given up to him? What if he is not even here?
No one in this world can compete with me anymore, wouldn’t such days be boring and unbearable?”
The slender fingers lifted Ruan Yanluo's chin and brought him closer. The cold look in Yi Chenxuan's eyes was accompanied by a cold smile. With a little effort, two red marks appeared on his delicate cheeks.
"You know, many times I can't help but think about how great it would be if the woman who walks around me every day is Bai Qige. Then I don't have to waste time explaining this to you. It's a pity that she is so resourceful.
She is enough but not good-looking, and you have skin but no brains. No one is the woman I want."
"I'm certainly not as good as her, otherwise why would I need to please the prince? It seems that the prince has also suffered from that woman." Ruan Yanluo's face turned red and white, and he calmed down and retorted. Probably out of worry.
Infuriating Yi Chenxuan, Ruan Yanma immediately showed a charming smile after making sarcastic remarks, and leaned in front of Yi Chenxuan: "Okay, even if we form an alliance, it looks like an alliance. It's boring to argue. I'm
I admire the prince very much."
The meaningless flattery was just nonsense to Yi Chenxuan. He narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head and drank the remaining wine in the glass, and the corners of his lips once again raised an expectant smile.
"Love and kill each other, the world is forever apart, let hatred become an insurmountable gap between them... Just wait and see the show, see whether Bai Qige loves Lao Qi more, or hates him more."
