On the ninth day of the first lunar month in the distant calendar, the five Monan kingdoms were suddenly attacked by the Anling Kingdom. The Yanhu Kingdom, which had been in a state of chaos after being bombarded by Dayao, was the first to be attacked. However, it declared its fall on the seventh day. Then the other four kingdoms followed in succession for more than ten days. Fall. In February, the Anling Kingdom occupied the oasis fortress in the center of Monan. It unified the subjects of the five kingdoms and merged with the Anling people. It established its capital in Guanglan City and became a sudden rise of a great power outside Zhongzhou.
In mid-February, the new emperor of Yaoguo was about to ascend the throne, and the news that the queen's canonization ceremony would be held on the same day reached Anling. The monarch, who was supposed to be sitting on the throne and taking care of state affairs, sighed three times. He dropped his pen and ran to Xiyuequan to relax.
"You're so stingy. Even Miss Bai, I reluctantly gave away my love to him. The stingy prince didn't even give him a gift. I don't think there's any need to give him a gift." Ning Xizui lay by the lake and muttered dissatisfiedly. Her green eyes reflected Out of the twilight sky. And Su Buqi's look of disdain.
"It's already a big honor for us to be fooling around in Monan. How big a thank you gift do you want?" He took away the delicate wooden box that Ning Xizui used as a pillow behind his head. Su Buqi carefully wiped off the dust on it. With an upright look on his face, "Besides, it's not a gift, it's a return. Bai Qige is the prince's person."
Ning Xizui, who always prided herself on being sharp-tongued, moved her mouth and said nothing for a long time. Finally, she glanced at Su Buqi angrily. Her muttering became quieter and quieter: "Buqi, who are you from? For the sake of Ruhuamei Have you betrayed me and surrendered to the enemy? I thought you were a friend in vain and I racked my brains to think of ways to bring you and that beauty together."[
Su Buqi was stunned for a moment. Then he half-raised the wooden box with an indifferent expression. With a thud, it landed heavily on Ning Xizui.
"Su Yan went to the temple to teach Bai Qi Ge to have a son and practice."
Those words were said calmly and lightly, as if they were a very common thing. However, Ning Xizui, who had known Su Buqi for many years, could easily hear the loneliness, traces and traces of sadness in the words.
No matter how indifferent a person is, once they get emotional, they will easily have mood swings, from sadness to joy.
There was silence for a while. Ning Xizui suddenly raised the box and handed it to Su Buqi. Her warm smile was as old as before: "My adoptive father has been paying close attention to me recently. It is impossible to escape to the distant country. I can only give him a gift. Please give me... this and this sword. Please give it to Miss Bai for me."
"Who was yelling about not sending gifts just now?"
"Ah. I only said I wouldn't send gifts to the stingy prince. I didn't say I wouldn't send gifts to Miss Bai."
"The evil spirit will never die."
"Each other."
Two pairs of equally beautiful green eyes stared at each other for a moment. They each stepped back a few minutes and smiled softly at the same time. Su Buqi put away the wooden box and glanced sideways at the horses drinking water not far away. His eyes were slightly sullen. Confused: "I said a lot to my adoptive father that day. When my adoptive father agreed to let Bai Qige go back, he said, This is also a natural choice. Because you care about Bai Qige too much. You have repeatedly delayed time and refused to take over state affairs for her sake. As long as she makes a request, you will let her go at all costs."
"So what if I don't let go. Miss Bai has been depressed since she came to Monan. It's impossible for my adoptive father to expect her to help me like she assisted the prince in Yaoguo. Originally, I thought that as long as I took her away, the prince would no longer suffer. Then it doesn't matter even if she blames me. I didn't realize it until Jin Yan appeared. If you like someone, you will be happy even if you suffer some hardships." Lying on the fine sand ground, she closed her eyes. Ning Xizui's lips showed a hint of relief. "I have always been happy. I refused to face up to my mistakes under the excuse of being forced by my adoptive father. Being alienated by Miss Bai was a natural punishment. When I lost the relationship I valued most and suddenly realized that I had broken Miss Bai's heart, I found that I had also become Shame on me. I am completely unqualified to take care of her and protect her. In this case, why not let her go. At least she can get the destination she wants with the prince instead of living with regrets for the rest of her life."
If you can't get it, let it go. The more you cherish it, the more you should be willing to fulfill it. This way, caring will not turn into hatred.
Looking at Ning Xizui's relaxed expression, Su Buqi suddenly said in a low voice: "Do you like her?"
"Yes. I like her. I fell in love with her the first time I saw her." Ning Xizui chuckled. She didn't mean to deny it at all. "But it's not the kind of feeling you have for Miss Suyan. I only like Miss Bai as a friend." .We are willing to be close friends. We care about each other. We can talk to each other and share joys and sorrows. But we will never become husband and wife. We will not have the idea of binding each other for life. I know that part of the reason why my adoptive father forced Miss Bai to get married is to stand up for me. It's a pity that my adoptive father has wrong intentions. Miss Bai and I just want to be sworn friends and enjoy the love between men and women."
There was silence for a long time. Su Buqi shook his head: "My adoptive father and I both misunderstood. I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I forgive you."
"Actually, we should have guessed it earlier. A weirdo like you is naturally different from ordinary people."
A clear smile froze on her face. Ning Xizui blinked her eyes, took a deep breath and smiled bitterly: "Thank you for the compliment."
The exchange of thoughts was interrupted by a burst of rapid horse hoofbeats. Ning Xizui, who had dragged Su Buqi out of the court and escaped, patted the sand and dust off his body and stood up. Facing Lu Feidu, who was speeding towards him, he showed a frustrated expression. [
As they approached, Lu Feidu jumped off his horse and stood still. He was in a state of embarrassment and said, "My lord is really going to cause trouble for others. Can't you wait until the military advisor is on duty before escaping? I have to run so far every time. I have to be beaten when I get back." Master Feng reprimanded..." He complained for a long time. Lu Feidu stopped complaining when he saw Su Buqi holding the wooden box in his hand. He put on a curious expression: "Master Su, what is this? Is it for which girl? Do you need help?"
Su Buqi's talk to Lu Feidu had reached the point where he had a headache. He rubbed his forehead with frustration and said, "You talk so much every day. Doesn't your tongue hurt?"
"There's no need to do it for me. Didn't General Lu say he hates going to the distant country the most?" Seeing Lu Feidu staring at the wooden box, he had the urge to open it and take a look. Ning Xizui ignored Su Buqi's question and joked, "This is me. A wedding gift for Miss Bai. I don’t mind if General Lu insists on helping. It happens that Bu Qi has to take care of Jin Yan. He spends too much time running around."
Thinking of the complicated streets and alleys of the distant imperial capital, Lu Feidu, who was best at getting lost, immediately turned pale and shook his head frequently. Shaking and shaking, he suddenly remembered something, showing an expression of sudden realization and deep meaning.
"My lord gave me the vulture's eyeballs as a gift. That's right. They say a long farewell is better than a wedding. Maybe at this moment, the third lady and the prince of the distant country are enjoying each other's love."
The soothing incense was about to burn out in the East Palace bedroom of Yaoguo. Loud sneezes echoed in the room.
"Wind-cold. Catch a cold." Bai Qige raised her eyebrows. Bai Xiu's palm touched Yi Chen's forehead.
"I guess it's your annoying confidant who is saying bad things about me behind my back." After another sneeze, Yi Chen had to pull the quilt covering his waist up until it covered his shoulders, thinning the corners of his lips. Curved in a shallow arc, the fingertips passed across, wiping away a trace of sweat on the tip of Bai Qige's nose: "Continue."
Bai Qige gritted her teeth, pursed her lips and stared straight at him.
This angle was really awkward for her. Even if the candles in the room were extinguished and only the oil lamp was turned to the dimmest level, Yi Chen's sweat-soaked chest and proud face with a smirk could still be seen clearly. She was lying on her back. The feeling of being bullied was very unpleasant. However, Bai Qi Gefa protested. Who made her soften her heart? After being clinging to her for an hour, she blurted out her consent.
"You are really shameless. You originally agreed to live in separate beds before the wedding ceremony. But then you made an excuse and said it was convenient to take care of you and you moved on to the bed. That's all. Who swore that you only wanted the other person to sleep peacefully and not move around.
Break your promise and gain weight. Sooner or later you will become so paunchy that you can't even walk."
Yi Chen shrugged his shoulders. He had the attitude of "I don't care if you scold me". Seeing that Bai Qige was still staring with her eyes and her cheeks flushed, she lazily moved. Bai Qige immediately raised his voice.
"If you are thin-skinned, you will be bullied. Do you understand?" Yi Chen leaned down and pecked her soft pink lips. Yi Chen used a unique way to make Bai Qige surrender obediently... and only at this time was she at his mercy.
.At any other time, I would have been hit with an old punch.
The hot breath hit her face. The clear face that was close at hand felt real. Bai Qige tried to respond to Yi Chen's every move and every soft call. Although it was jerky, it was more serious.
The temperature that was just about to cool down started to heat up again. There was only one brazier left in the room, but the two of them were still dripping with sweat. It was unclear which drop was his and which was hers. It was as if the two of them had blended into each other.
Life. No matter life or death, no force can separate them.
"Qi Ge." Yi Chen suddenly lowered his voice while lingering. He turned his flushed cheeks to face himself. His eyes were as hazy as mist. "It's okay to have children. All I want is you."
Bai Qige answered. She raised her forearm to block her eyes.
After experiencing several ups and downs, and bloody storms, she could accept all the arrangements given by fate. Only the matter of giving birth to a child could not be relieved. Although both Emperor Yao and the Queen criticized it harshly, she knew it. According to
According to the law of Dayao, a wife who is a normal wife and is infertile for three years will have to give up her throne. A queen who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people is no exception. If it were not for the tacit approval of everyone who turned a blind eye.
She is actually not qualified to become the queen because she cannot continue her legacy for Yi Chen.
She will never be able to become a mother in this life. She will not be able to give Yi Chen a blood-related relative.
"Okay. Don't think so much. This is enough for now." He moved Bai Qige's arm and kissed her tears away. Yi Chen's tone was so gentle that it was almost coaxing. He pointed to the bright red wedding dress hanging flat on the screen.
His eyes were as bright as stars. "There are still seven days. In seven days, you will be my queen from a distant country. From now on, I will accompany you as my mother to the world. It is not enough to be so sentimental. My wife is a mighty female general. Not just a wife.
A little woman who sheds tears when she talks about her children.”
"You are a little woman."
"Then you are a little woman's woman."[
The spring color was warm inside the room, and the snow was falling heavily outside. As soon as the door in the courtyard was closed, the girl in the wheelchair let out a low exclamation.
"What's wrong? Li'er." Fu Chu rushed to the wheelchair with a nervous look on his face. However, he saw Li'er shaking his head and showing a sweet smile.
"What? I forgot to hold the needle in my hand when I was sleeping. I accidentally pricked my finger."
Fu Chu let out a long sigh. He held Li'er's soft little hand and brought it to his eyes. He saw a drop of blood rolling down from his round fingertips. It landed impartially on the Luanfeng brocade handkerchief embroidered for Bai Qige and Yi Chen.
My heart suddenly sank.
The light of blood before happiness is an ominous sign.
