Chapter 6 Coriander is trapped in the sky
"It's all up to heaven's will..."Bai Jiacheng lowered his head and smiled softly. If his daughter marries Ling Xiao's kid, then he can only accept his fate, but even if Ling Xiaocheng marries his daughter, even if the Bai family's military power needs to be inherited, now that the eldest prince is there, it is impossible for him to hand over the military power to Ling Xiao, their Bai family needs to be loyal to the emperor of the current dynasty forever, Bai Jiacheng also has to tell his daughter that their Bai family must assist the king in governing the world.
The emperor of the dynasty was a brother who fought side by side with him, a comrade-in-arms who shared life and death and weal and woe. Even having given up the woman he loved the most to himself, he had to be faithful to the emperor and to all the emperor's will.
If his daughter marries Ling Xiao in the future, he will still be towards the eldest prince, and when he is old, he will hand over this military power to the new emperor of Emperor Yuzhao, at that time he and his wife will live a secluded life of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan, if his daughter marries Ling Xiao, he can rest assured, he can also watch Ling Xiao grow up, and the queen mother behind Ling Xiao's calm personality is still some power, but I am afraid that it will be suppressed......
"Miss, do you want to tell the general and the lady! Let them find you a good doctor? Qianqian's personal maid Xiaoqing looked at Qianqian lying on the bed, her lips were purple and her face was pale, and she asked anxiously.
Coriander was wrapped in two layers of thick quilts, but she was still shivering with cold, looking at this condition, Xiaoqing felt that the young lady was terminally ill, if something happened, how could she explain to the general and his wife, but Qianqian didn't let Xiaoqing tell her father and mother about her poisoning.
Xiaoqing was in a dilemma, but Qian Qian believed that Brother Ling Xiao would definitely help her develop an antidote, she had been waiting, she hadn't felt anything uncomfortable just a few days before she took the poison pill, and the days were getting closer and closer to the date of the poison toxicity, there were three days left, three days......
"Miss! I'll go find Lord Xiao! ”
"No, you can't go" Qian Qian nestled in the quilt and shivered, even her voice trembled, she was so weak, she felt that her body was about to be frozen by ice and snow, and the eyelids of her eyes were as heavy as a thousand gold.
"Miss, how would you let the slave maid do this, if so... If it..."If you have the unlucky words of three long and two short, Xiaoqing can't say it."
"Miss, do you want the maidservant to help you find Ling Xiaogongzi? Slave maid can't watch you have an accident, Miss! Xiaoqing hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed twice, and hurriedly put on a black cloak and ran out of the house regardless of whether the young lady agreed or not.
The third prince was fiddling with the soot from a few incense sticks on a stove of incense in his dormitory, and the ash peeled off from the brightest red light at the very top of the incense under the plucking of the wire, and suddenly the door was pushed open with a "bang", and then it was immediately closed.
The third prince saw the person clearly, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"You're still here," he stopped, and gestured to the stool next to him, "Sit."
"Antidote!" Ling Xiao looked at the anger in the heart of the three princes who were so disapproving, and he pointed a sword straight at the throat of the three princes.
"Hehe, do you dare to kill me?" Wei Xinghan smiled indifferently.
"It's hard for a gentleman to chase a horse, but on the seventh day, the third highness owes the antidote to the eldest lady of the Bai family?!" The sword in Ling Xiao's hand did not relax in the slightest.
"Isn't there three days left? What are you anxious about? Wei Xinghan didn't have the slightest fear in his tone, just slowly walked to the hundred-year-old Nanmu table and sat down, took out a small bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table, the smile on the corner of his mouth did not disappear at all.
"There is only this bottle of antidote in this world, and if it is broken, there will be no antidote"
"The Third Highness is really a good means, what kind of hero is it to blackmail me with a woman?"
"As long as it can be a weakness, I don't care if he's a woman or not"
"The Third Highness is really cold-blooded!" Ling Xiao knew that he could only get the antidote if he agreed to cooperate with the three princes today and help them win the throne.
"It's over, it's just that your weakness is too obvious, so I have to want to help you."
In fact, this is a protracted battle, whoever holds on longer can win, he didn't expect that he met General Bai's daughter that day, and he didn't expect that after checking it, he also knew that Ling Xiao and General Bai's daughter were inextricably linked, and he originally wanted to take Ling Xiao for his own use. But he has never been able to find a chance, now he knows that Ling Xiao loves this woman named Bai Qianqian deeply, if Ling Xiao and Bai Qianqian have no contact, he will quickly give the antidote to Bai Qianqian, but it is precisely because their relationship is not ordinary, so he has to make good use of it, what he has to do is to delay the time to give the antidote so that Bai Qianqian and Ling Xiao both think that he will not come up with the antidote, so that Ling Xiao will be impatient to come to him to ask for the antidote, they can negotiate the conditions, Ling Xiao will inevitably agree to him in order to get the antidote to save Bai Qianqian.
"I promise your conditions," Ling Xiao put down the sword in his hand.
"Good! That's what I want! ”
"You can give me the antidote!"
"Wait, there's another bottle here, this is the Western Regions fire poison, the opposite of Miss Coriander's cold poison, when the poison attacks, the whole body is like a burning fire, and I am the only one in this world who has the antidote to this fire poison, you should know what I want to do, right?"
Ling Xiao stopped talking, took the medicine and drank it, "I really underestimated the wisdom of the Third Highness!" ”
"It's so wise that I don't have to, the most taboo thing for me is betrayal! In fact, if you follow me, I will not treat you badly! ”
Ling Xiao didn't reply anymore, grabbed the small bottle of antidote on the table with one hand and left.
Wei Xinghan remembered that on the birthday of the eldest prince a few days ago, the fine work he cultivated helped the eldest prince to misinform him, saying that the emperor had left a secret edict about the establishment of a new emperor in the imperial study, and only the eldest prince knew about it.
Fortunately, he didn't believe in this fine work for a long time, so he put on a black dress and quietly followed the fine work to find out, but this fine work did not know that the third prince followed him, but he did not expect that the fine work himself revealed the plan of the eldest prince in the process of transmitting news to his subordinates.
Wei Xinghan hid in a bush, and heard this fine man say to his subordinates: "You tell Your Highness, I have already conveyed the wrong news to the third prince, please Your Highness will install eyeliner and soldiers outside the emperor's imperial study at that time, and wait until the third prince comes to peek at the emperor's secret edict and catch it properly!" We just need to wait for Wei Xinghan to take the bait, and then we can be accused of peeping at the throne and assassinating the emperor. At that time, no matter how powerful he Wei Xinghan was, the best result would be to be demoted to a commoner, and everything would be as much as his Highness could wait for his changes to take over! ”
Seeing that the eldest prince was loved by the emperor, he relied on the identity of the eldest prince to be reused by the eldest prince, and this meticulous work knew that the third prince Wei Xinghan would never expose his identity as a fine work, otherwise he would confess all the fine works that he knew that the other three princes who were placed by the eldest prince's side.
This is a big weapon in the hands of this fine worker, so he dares to be so arrogant.
Wei Xinghan smiled coldly, I like to play so much, then I will play with you.
Wei Xinghan didn't solve this detail immediately, until the day when the eldest prince thought he could "capture" the three princes, they did wait for the man in black outside the emperor's imperial study, but there was more than one, after they were caught by the soldiers planted by the eldest prince, they all said in unison, "We were sent by the eldest prince to assassinate the emperor!" The eldest prince was angry and ordered them all to be killed, and sent someone to kill the person who delivered the news.
This had already disturbed Wei Tianyue's mind, and he understood that the eyeliner that the third prince had planted beside him had exceeded his expectations.
The purpose of the third prince Wei Xinghan was also achieved, and by the way, he helped Wei Tianyue get rid of this wall grass.
Thinking of this, Wei Xinghan no longer trusted anyone, he watched Ling Xiao drink the fire poison of the Western Regions and smiled contentedly, he did not allow any betrayal to appear in his plan.
"Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass! When the time comes, we win-win! I will make you the general of the protector of the country! Wei Xinghan appreciated Ling Xiao's righteousness very much, and then he could control Ling Xiao even if he didn't use Bai Qianqian.
He stretched out his hand to hand the antidote to Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao took it, pushed open the door without looking back, and hurried back to Ling Mansion, on the way, he only felt that his chest was burning like a fire, like a high-temperature melted iron slurry dripping into his chest cavity drop by drop, most of his internal force was used to suppress the medicinal properties of this fire poison, so that he could not use light skills to quickly Ling Mansion at this time, thinking that Qian Qian was tormented by illness, Ling Xiao's heart tightened, he would never allow her to do anything, this is the woman he wants to protect in this life, he can't even protect the woman he likes, how can he talk about the world?
On the way, Ling Xiao recalled that Qian Qian said to him before: "Brother Ling Xiao, I like you to be a good official!" ”
"What does a good officer look like?"
"No matter how big or small the official position is, they are aware of the people's will, clean and honest, and politically clear!"
Since then, Ling Xiao has left the capital and become the county guard of Yanzhou despite the queen's opposition.
"Brother Ling Xiao, will you marry me?"
At that time, Ling Xiao didn't answer, because from the very beginning, Ling Xiao decided that Qian Qian was his! It's only a matter of time before you marry her! But now that Qianqian's life is in danger, he is no longer rational.
Because of the momentary impatience, a bright red gushed out from his throat, the fire poison has been completely integrated into the blood of his body, and has become peaceful, he clenched the antidote in his hand, and felt that his vitality had recovered most of his vitality during the journey, so he flew back with light work.
When he just landed in front of the Ling Mansion, Ling Xiao had already noticed that a girl was running towards him, and her steps were very fast, and when the little girl got closer, she knew that this was Qianqian's personal maid Xiaoqing.
Xiaoqing's expression was flustered and his breath was messy, and the moment he saw Ling Xiao Gongzi, it was like seeing a savior.
"Prince Lingxiao! Please! Help our Miss Coriander quickly! Her current situation is dangerous! Xiaoqing knelt on the ground because of the Savior's heart, and kowtowed repeatedly.
