"How miserable do you imagine others to be every day? Are you happy doing this?" Bai Qige's anger is not as intense as that of Yi Chenjing. If Yi Chenjing is a volcano, then she is a stagnant water that deliberately keeps calm.
Only in this way can we minimize the conflict with him. If the two smelly and hard rocks collide, the outcome will only be worse.
However, the fire was blazing. Bai Qige tried her best to suppress her anger, but in the end she was no match for Yi Chenjing's repeated stimulation. With just one sentence, the dispute between the two broke out again.
"I'm really curious, are you also so dissolute when facing Yun Zhongjin and Yi Chenxuan? Is this your nature?"
"Yi Chenjing, have you had enough?!" Those words just now had chilled Bai Qige's heart, and now Yi Chenjing mentioned Yun Zhongjin and Yi Chenxuan, two people who had brought her a lot of pain, a lot of humiliation and humiliation.
Unable to control himself, all his thoughts came out, "Why should I go to Yun Zhongjin? It's because of your so-called truth! And Yi Chenxuan, if you hadn't defeated Zhao Guo's self-respecting army, how could he have been forced into crisis for no reason?
Looking for me? I was the one who was deceived and hurt. You just stood aside and watched and never said a word. What qualifications do you have to sarcastically accuse me? Just because I have made mistakes before.
Someone you like?"
"Isn't this reason enough? I didn't bring you back to Zhao Kingdom to let you enjoy the blessings of being a prince. Think about your identity and status when you first came here, and then look at how you are living now. Can you stand here and talk to each other?
Who gave you the sharp teeth?" Yi Chenjing's face turned livid, and her voice became louder and louder, "I'm not qualified? Bai Qige, ask yourself, who is the person who is not qualified?!"
In an instant, Bai Qige's face turned pale.
She almost forgot that Yi Chenjing originally wanted to torture her and make her life worse than death in order to avenge the Hongxiao Princess. So what if she was smart enough to show her talents that were different from others? Hate is hate, use is
Utilization, there is no conflict between the two. She is too naive, thinking that doing her best to plan for him can offset her past sins, at least make him no longer resentful, but in the end it is just an empty hope, the people who should hate her still hate her
, the person who once thought he could protect her has disappeared.
A silent sigh filled with countless vicissitudes of life was like smoke. Rather than being calm, it would be better to say that Bai Qige's current state of mind was to give up completely, and no longer wanted to bury her chaotic thoughts in her heart and chew the bitterness alone.
"Have you ever thought about why I believed Yi Chenxuan? In fact, from the beginning, I suspected that his motives for approaching me were impure, but I still couldn't regard him as a villain, just because everyone despised me and betrayed me.
When he wanted me to disappear, he treated me as a normal person, even though those were all false. My idea was very simple, as long as no one hurt my relatives, as long as I could still live until we meet again.
It is enough for them to be reunited. For this reason, I can ignore the pain I have suffered and risk all the crimes of killing the nine clans to help you seize power and usurp the throne. Isn't this enough? You will be satisfied only if I am worse than dead, right?
?”
This is the first time that Bai Qige has expressed her feelings, and it is also the first time that she has exposed her vulnerable side in front of Yi Chenjing. She has had enough of these days of constant suspicion. Whether he believes it or not, it is better to say it all than to hold it in.
In my heart, it felt better than having him uncover the scars again and again and prick the bloody wounds.
"I don't expect you to be nice to me. Just like Yi Chenxuan, no matter how much you say or do, it's all for yourself and cannot be taken seriously. I just hope that you will stop mentioning the past and say that you will not pursue it.
It's you, the one who has repeatedly made suspicions and spoken harshly to me. A grown man shouldn't go back on his word. If you still want to use me as a chess piece, then please keep your word so that you can be aware of yourself."
Bai Qige's regression made Yi Chenjing no longer so excited, especially her tired face, which she couldn't bear to see.
There were bursts of storm and calm, and the silence after the brief argument was almost suffocating. Yi Chenjing put his hands on both ends of the dowry and lowered his head. His brocade sleeves were stained with spilled rouge and turned red. If he could, he really didn't want to
There was another quarrel with Bai Qige, but whenever things involved Hong Xiao, he couldn't control his emotions. Whether it was Bai Qige or others, everyone around him would be affected by his anger, which was not what he really wanted.
It seemed that Bai Qige was destined to break the deadlock when the two got along. Listening to the anxious footsteps of Zhan Ting outside the door, Bai Qige suppressed the urge to argue with Yi Chenjing and gently placed the incense box on the dowry.
He raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "If you don't have any other opinions, let's solve the problem at hand first. Put aside what happened last night and think about it with your brain. Would I be stupid enough to steal something unique and use it in front of you?"
After pondering for a moment, Yi Chenjing replied with difficulty: "Maybe not."
As smart as Bai Qige, of course he would not do such a stupid thing. It was because he was carried away by anger and did not think carefully, which led to this fierce quarrel. Yi Chenjing knew that he was wrong in the first place, so his voice could not help but lower.
However, his face was still so livid that it was difficult to relax: "I will investigate this matter clearly. If you are innocent, I will personally apologize. If it turns out that it was you who did it... I will never tolerate anyone involved."
"You can tell who is innocent and who is unclean by just asking, why bother to spend extra time to find out?" Bai Qige opened the door with a wooden face. Yu Che, who had rushed over after hearing the quarrel outside, was wandering around the floor with Zhan Ting like headless flies.
Hearing the sound of opening the door, they stopped and looked over, with worries on their faces. Ignoring the questioning looks of the two, Bai Qige pulled Yu Che into the bedroom and said in an indifferent tone: "Just say whatever His Highness asks. I'll give you one, five, ten."
Tell me everything you know. If you dare to tell a lie, even I can't save you."
It was common for Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing to quarrel, but this was the first time that they both looked like they were interrogating with a sullen expression. Yu Che didn't know what happened yet, and he was confused and fearful at the same time, so he just nodded without making any other movements.
"Where does this incense come from?" Yi Chenjing took a deep breath, took the Bai Qi singer's incense box and handed it to Yu Che, "Tell the truth, lies will not do you any good."
"This incense... I bought this incense from a palace maid." Taking a secret look at the expressionless Bai Qige, Yu Che knew that the matter was of great importance. If anything went wrong, he would never be able to bear it, so he had to give away the incense.
The origin was explained in detail, "The spices used for the lady's lavender had been used up, and His Highness was not allowed to leave the Lianchen Pavilion at will. He wanted to ask someone to buy it but was unwilling to spend more reward money. That day, he met a palace maid in front of the door and said that there was a palace lady.
The spices brought from outside can be sold at a low price, and the servant is tempted by the temptation of cheapness..."
"In other words, this incense was delivered to your door by someone else?"
Yu Che nodded timidly: "The palace maid said that this incense was secretly brought into the palace, and she wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible because she was worried about being discovered and punished by the master. The slave thinks that although it is a bit expensive, this incense box is quite exquisite, and the spices in it are
The taste is also very elegant and special, so I bought it for the lady to use for lavender. The lady is usually very frugal, but I was afraid that the lady would blame me for spending too much money, so I didn’t dare to repay the truth. Please forgive me..."
Looking across Shen Jing's face, Yi Chenjing waved her hand impatiently: "Go down."
Since Bai Qige didn't take it with ulterior motives, it means that this is another carefully designed conspiracy. The purpose is nothing more than to make the two of them have another dispute. You don't need to think about it to know who is the mastermind behind it. However, there is one thing that Yi Chenjing is very worried about.
Mind you, this incense has been carefully kept in the study. Who would understand its extraordinary significance, and who could easily take it away without disturbing him? If that person is Yi Chenxuan's subordinate and can enter and exit the study freely,
So you can imagine what kind of danger he is in.
Signaling Yu Che to leave first, Bai Qige closed the door and stood in front of the window, deliberately not looking at Yi Chenjing who looked complicated behind her.
"Besides Zhan Ting, the person who comes in and out of the study most often is me. It's reasonable for you to have doubts. But don't forget, I'm not the only one in Lianchenxuan who can enter the study. I know about Princess Hongxiao.
There are fewer than you, such as this incense box. If you don’t tell me, I will never know its origin. With so many doubts and possibilities in front of you, you still insist that I am designing you, then I have nothing to say.
That’s right, if you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please.”
Leng Ran's tone was the same as before. She tried her best to resist him and avoid the first time they met him. An indescribable feeling rolled in her chest. Yi Chenjing stood behind Bai Qige with her hands behind her hands. The thin body in front of him made him want to pick it up and weigh it.
He weighed how much weight she had lost, but all he could do was stand, silent, and silent.
Bai Qige had never responded to him with such an abnormal behavior. In the past, whether it was a quarrel or an infliction of harm by him in anger, or a rare peaceful treatment, she always endured everything without being humble or overbearing, and protected herself tightly with a cold and hard aura.
Not letting anyone get close, not letting anyone see her truth and weakness; and now, she threw away all her long-standing patience and unwillingness, and then turned her back to him as if she was about to turn away, in order to make him regret,
Make him blame himself for what he said and did?
"You can check the rest by yourself. I'm very tired and want to rest." Sitting on the edge of the bed with her head lowered, Bai Qige still refused to look at Yi Chenjing, her tired tone showing exhaustion.
Yi Chenjing did not move, but took the incense box and opened the lid. He raised his hand, and the purple-gray rough incense particles scattered all over the floor.
"This is the caramel incense that Mo Gang paid tribute to Zhao Kingdom. It contains mandala grass seeds and Qingming Mountain Spirit Deer Fat. There is only one box of this in the world. King Zhao specially gave it to red silk to treat nightmares." After a moment.
The man who was violent and angry before suddenly changed into a different person, with a gentle expression, as if he saw the woman he loved in the past, his eyes full of nostalgia, "She didn't like the smell, so she always threw it aside on purpose, so I made this box and hung it on her waist."
So that she wouldn't pick it off casually. She passed away suddenly, and many things she used during her lifetime were burned. This box of incense was secretly left to me by the palace maid who had taken care of her for more than ten years. I smelled the smell.
I always feel as if she is still with me and has never left."
With a silent smile, Bai Qige lowered her head.
What an infatuated man, what a tear-jerking story, but all of this has nothing to do with her.
