Chapter 317: Planting the Root of the Problem
Unconsciously, Si Huazhen had already classified Bai Weiying into the category of concern, and at the same time, Si Huazhen also knew why Li Yanran helped him.
Among them, there must be a handiwork of Bai Weiying.
It's just that Bai Weiying is different from Qianhui, even if she really did something for Si Huazhen, she just kept it in her heart and wouldn't say it, this good thing is pure and doesn't ask for anything in return.
Qianhui wants to make a big publicity, with a strong utilitarian heart, just like this time, Si Huazhen originally felt guilty about Qianhui, after all, it was he who used Qianhui's affection first.
But Qianhui's various behaviors during the banquet today have pushed him to the forefront.
Si Huazhen didn't want to be so showy, at this juncture, Taoguang was the best policy, but Qianhui was clever and misunderstood, so that Si Huazhen had to confront Si Yuanqiong and the emperor head-on.
I'm afraid that the road ahead will be even more difficult......
"The subordinates understood that the family members of the condemned prisoner also sent them away overnight, and gave a large sum of silver taels, enough for the two of them to live the rest of their lives unharmed." Liufeng reported in detail.
"That'll be fine." Si Huazhen nodded, stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, and his expression became obscure.
Liufeng stood silently behind Si Huazhen, secretly sweating for everything Si Huazhen had to face next.
When the king of Northern Xinjiang came to Beijing, the emperor ordered Si Huazhen to accompany him, and Si Huazhen was reinstated, and many of the affairs accumulated by the yamen before also needed to be solved urgently, so Si Huazhen became extremely busy, and he was a little busy for a while.
The idleness of the past is no longer there, and Si Huazhen can't meet Bai Weiying again.
And Bai Weiying was stunned, but she was inevitably worried about Si Huazhen's situation.
The arrival of the king of Northern Xinjiang is not a bad thing, but it is definitely not a good thing in the real sense, to make it clear, the king of Northern Xinjiang will help Si Huazhen speak, it is nothing more than to look at the relationship between Si Huazhen and Qianhui.
In the past few days, Bai Weiying has also heard a lot of rumors, most of which are about Qianhui and Si Huazhen's love for Jin Jian, and the king of Northern Xinjiang is very satisfied.
Bai Weiying knows Si Huazhen's thoughts better than anyone else, he is just playing on the spot, plus his memory is gradually recovering, even if he has a forgetful Gu, Si Huazhen still has some affection for Qianhui, but the final result will definitely not be as calm as now.
If someone with a heart takes advantage of this excuse to debunk this "illusion", I am afraid that it will cause an uproar.
Bai Weiying took a deep breath, and a furrow twisted out between her delicate and beautiful eyebrows, this is destined to be an unsolvable dead end, except for that road, there is no way out......
On the other side, Si Yuanqiong was just as Bai Weiying guessed, although the wind was calm on the surface, but in secret, a new round of planning had already begun.
Si Yuanqiong turned his attention back to Bai Muyan, before this, he thought that Bai Muyan was already a chess piece that had lost its use value, and it was even more difficult to move forward in the palace, but it was precisely for this reason that it was easier to be subconsciously ignored.
Because no one would have imagined that Bai Muyan, who was disgusted by the emperor and even ordered people to secretly poison him, would turn over one day.
Late at night, Si Yuanqiong was dressed in black and quietly appeared in Bai Muyan's bedroom.
The surroundings were in ruins, and the dormitory had not been cleaned for a long time, and the air was filled with a strong and pungent fragrance.
Liu Xiang stepped forward, poured out all the spices in the incense burner, and opened the window, and after ventilation, most of the fragrance dissipated.
In the corner of the bed where Bai Muyan was, the sound of breathing changed from rapid to gentle, she noticed that someone was coming in, thought it was Shui Bi, and called out dying: "Shui Bi, pour me a cup of tea, I'm thirsty." ”
Liu Xiang looked at Si Yuanqiong and saw that he nodded, so he walked to the table and poured a cup of tea for Bai Muyan.
Because of the dim light, it wasn't until he approached Bai Muyan's bedside that Liu Xiang saw Bai Muyan's withered face clearly.
However, in just a few months, Bai Muyan seems to have changed as a person, without the slightest coquettishness that a twenty-eight-year-old woman should have, but like an old woman in her last years.
Bai Muyan took the teacup, because she was in a hurry to drink, she was accidentally choked, and when Bai Muyan coughed, she also opened her eyes, but she saw Liu Xiang who appeared out of thin air.
Bai Muyan screamed "ah", she turned her head to the side, and happened to meet Si Yuanqiong's gaze.
Bai Muyan's chaotic sanity regained a moment of clarity, she reacted, and when she sat up, she crawled to Si Yuanqiong's side, "Lord, Lord!" Someone is trying to hurt me! I really can't help it, please help me! ”
Bai Muyan is not a fool, after the emperor rewarded the spices, she appeared a lot of strange things, the imperial doctor was silent about it, and everyone only said that Bai Muyan had done too much and fell into madness, but Bai Muyan knew that she was calculated by the emperor.
But Bai Muyan had no backhand, her sober time was getting shorter and shorter, just when Bai Muyan thought that she was going to be tortured to death like this, Si Yuanqiong suddenly appeared, which undoubtedly gave Bai Muyan hope to live.
Seeing that Si Yuanqiong didn't speak, Bai Muyan clutched Si Yuanqiong's robe tightly, and begged: "King Huai'an, whatever you ask me to do, I don't want to die, I really don't want to die!" ”
"Are you really willing to do anything?" Si Yuanqiong squatted down and said meaningfully: "This king can save your life, but this king needs you to match this king." ”
"Matchmaking?" Bai Muyan raised his head and asked a little stunned, "What does this mean, prince?" I don't understand......"
Liu Xiang explained for Si Yuanqiong: "Does Concubine Yan know about selling officials? Your current situation is so difficult, it is better to join forces with the prince, what about you, you can get the money to live, and the prince can also get the person he wants, why not? ”
"This ......" Bai Muyan heard this, the strength in his hand relaxed, and after a short thought, he gritted his teeth and responded: "Okay!" I promise! ”
Bai Muyan doesn't want to go back to the days before, she also knows what kind of price she will pay if she is discovered, but she is alive now, and she is no different from dead, since she is dead both horizontally and vertically, it is better to gamble.
"Good." Si Yuanqiong nodded with satisfaction, "You still have to continue to burn the spices, but this king has changed to another spice, so in this way, you can also hide from the surveillance of the Internal Affairs Bureau, so you can rest assured, and when this king needs you, he will also send you news, you just have to do it, no need to ask." ”
