Chapter 37 Captive Weiyang Palace
Seven or eight days have passed since the emperor's wedding, and except for those palace maids and eunuchs who have followed from kisses, no one in the palace has seen the queen's mother. The emperor has begun to deal with government affairs in the court, but the harem is still like the original and no one takes care of it, except for Chang Gui's father-in-law who has handled the harem affairs as before, the queen has never appeared.
Some people also said that the queen was unhappy to marry in the first place, let alone deal with the harem affairs of the Northern Qi Kingdom. But the emperor went to the Weiyang Palace where the queen lived every day, and there was no news about the disagreement between the two, so it made people very confused.
In addition to this, there is another thing that also makes people suspicious, that is, General Lin.
For several days in a row, after the next dynasty, General Lin did not even go to the emperor's Zhengyang Palace to discuss matters, but ran to the queen's bedroom every day, only morning and not night. The emperor also turned a blind eye to this and didn't care about it.
Probably these things are only known to the parties concerned, for example, Qi Shui, who is now sitting in front of Qi Xin's bed.
General Lin came every day, and after a few words of greeting, he stood far away and looked at the Seventh Princess. And the seventh princess kept looking at Qi Xin who was unconscious on the bed, changing Qi Xin's dressing every day, and appeasing Qi Xin's feelings.
After settling down, Qixin's situation gradually improved, and her body had recovered a lot, and she had to toss every time she woke up, and the seventh princess tried her best to suppress her at this time. It just so happens that General Lin is by his side, so he will faint Qixin, or help the Seventh Princess feed Qixin medicine, in short, just don't let Beiqi see Qixin who is making a lot of noise when he comes.
Northern Qi came at night every time, replacing the Seventh Princess, and doing a night in front of Qixin's bed.
At first, the seventh princess really believed those rumors and felt that Beiqi's desire to marry Qixin was just an excuse to send troops to attack Qingguo, knowing that night, Beiqi asked her:
"Will you let Qi Xin die?"
At that time, the Seventh Princess did not give an answer, it was just such a stall, Beiqi casually pulled out the sword on General Lin's waist, and the end of the sword pointed at the eyebrows of the Seventh Princess. The seventh princess will never forget the expression of Beiqi at that time, with a ruthless energy, gritted her teeth and said.
"You hesitated, which means that you want her to die."
The seventh princess looked at Beiqi and was speechless. Indeed, the Seventh Princess was indeed hesitant at that time. Because the Seven Princesses are not sure of their hearts.
General Lin was at a loss on the side, on the one hand, he was loyal to the Northern Qi, and he should not object to what the Northern Qi wanted to do. But on the other hand, he didn't want Northern Qi to hurt the Seventh Princess. Fortunately, Northern Qi did not continue to do that, but slowly put down the sword.
"Get that thought out of your head. From today on, your biggest task is to stay by her side and make sure she doesn't die, or you'll be the one who dies. I will not be relentless. ”
After saying that, Bei Qi raised his sword in front of General Lin, and General Lin quickly took it and put it away.
Bei Qi turned his face to Princess Qixin in the arrogance, looked at Qixin's bleeding wrist and said,
"You should replace her at the wedding ceremony, remember, cooperate with me well."
Bei Qi took one last look at Princess Qixin and left, General Lin looked at the Seventh Princess, and stopped talking, but finally didn't say anything and followed behind Bei Qi.
From that time on. The seventh princess really understood. Even if Northern Qi really had the idea of starting a war under the pretext of unity, there was unity in the heart of Northern Qi. Before, the seventh princess had heard her father and mother talk about what happened before Qi Xin lost his memory when he was a child, and in recent days, she has been asking General Lin about the affairs of Northern Qi over the years. The seventh princess is sure that Beiqi's heart must still be deeply thinking about her playmate when she was a child, otherwise there would not be no concubine in the harem for so many.
"General Lin."
The seventh princess felt as if Qi Xin was about to wake up again, so she turned around and wanted to call General Lin to come over and have a look, but when she turned around during class, she found that General Lin was looking at her intently.
"General Lin."
The Seventh Princess raised her voice again and shouted here, and only then did General Lin react,
"Oh, yes. Seven Princesses. ”
General Lin hurriedly stood up and looked at the Seventh Princess nervously.
The Seventh Princess looked at General Lin directly, as if she was thinking about something important, General Lin became very embarrassed, kept clenching her fists and then loosened and then clenched and loosened. In the end, the seventh princess still asked the question she had been thinking about for a long time.
"Who was General Lin looking at just now?"
General Lin looked at the Seventh Princess in a panic, and hurriedly replied at a loss,
"Yes, yes, I'm looking at the princess."
After finishing speaking, General Lin lowered his head embarrassedly, secretly hating himself in his heart. Who would have thought that the seventh princess continued to ask.
"I'm asking, who is General Lin looking at me?"
General Lin raised his head and looked at the Seventh Princess in a daze. The Seventh Princess stood up, turned around and walked straight towards General Lin.
"General, I am the princess of Qingguo, a woman who has worshiped heaven and earth with your emperor in a phoenix robe. Does the general still think that he can see anyone in me? ”
The Seventh Princess looked at General Lin coldly, without a wave in her eyes.
General Lin never understood why she herself refused to return to China when she obviously asked Northern Qi to let go of the Seventh Princess at that time, but insisted on following Qi Xin to Northern Qi Kingdom. It turns out that it was so.
No matter how General Lin's expression changed, no matter how General Lin looked at the Seventh Princess, the Seventh Princess's expression still did not change, and she was not shocked. At that time, when she walked out of the arrogance and saw General Lin, she knew that the queen mother's plan had failed, just as she had thought in advance, but she had made up her mind a long time ago, even if it was exposed, she must go to the Northern Qi Kingdom. Because, Qi Xin must die, if her mother can't do it, if the emperor of the Northern Qi State can't do it, then she will kill Qi Xin herself. She must follow Qixin and make sure that Qixin dies.
General Lin looked at the Seventh Princess, and didn't know what to say for a while, but finally held back a sentence,
"Even if it is a big gift between the seventh princess and the emperor, everyone in the world knows that the emperor is married to Princess Qixin, and I hope that the seventh princess can understand this."
After General Lin finished speaking, he bowed a little and left Weiyang Palace without looking back.
The Seventh Princess didn't mind what General Lin said, after all, she didn't have any interest in Northern Qi now, and she had only one purpose, that is, Qixin.
"Hmm."
The feeling of the seventh princess was really right, and not long after General Lin left, Qixin woke up. The seventh princess walked back to the bedside, and by the way, picked up the decoction on the table that the imperial doctor prescribed for human sleep, and planned to feed Qixin. As soon as the seventh princess leaned down, Qi Xin looked at the seventh princess and said,
"Sister, please, don't."
When the seventh princess heard Qi Xin call 'sister', she didn't know where her anger came from, so she gave Qi Xin a slap.
Qi Xin was powerless to refute at all, but just kept looking at the Seventh Princess.
"Don't you know, that's when I deliberately tricked you into committing suicide."
Qi Xin looked at the Seven Princesses, tears sliding down from the corners of her eyes. The seventh princess was angry when she saw it, and wanted to slap Princess Qixin on the other side of her face, but she heard Beiqi's cold voice.
"Get out."
The seventh princess was so frightened that the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and shattered, and when she saw a blurred side face of Beiqi, she was pushed to the ground by him.
Bei Qi looked at Princess Qixin lying down gently, and the expression of the seven princesses just now was like two people. Qi Xin saw Beiqi's face, gritted his teeth, and turned his face away. Bei Qi smiled, looked at Qi Xin, and said in a cold voice,
"If you don't leave here, you won't have to come in again."
Hearing this, the seventh princess got up from the ground and walked out.
Qixin has been being fed medicine, or directly knocked unconscious, so he has no strength in his hands and feet. At this time, Beiqi stood beside her several times, and all she could do was to turn her face away. (To be continued.) )
