Chapter 69: Imprisoned

Hearing that Emperor Jin Ming had recruited Shui Qingqing into the palace to give marriage, Mei Zijin didn't think about it, and was going to the palace.

Seeing this, Sanshi stopped him with a heartbroken face, and said sadly: "Master, you better not go." There is news from the palace that the county lord of Guanqing has thanked him for receiving the decree in front of the emperor and the queen......"

The whole body was shocked, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Mei Zijin almost fell off the horse-

No, it's impossible, she had promised to marry him last night, and she entered the palace today to withdraw from Emperor Jin Ming, how could she agree to give marriage?!

No matter what Ren thinks, Mei Zijin will not believe that Shui Qingqing will agree to give marriage, because Yun'er is so important to her, she won't even want Yun'er......

Thinking of this, Mei Zijin regained his spirits and instructed Sanshi: "You lead people to continue to search for Yun'er, and don't let go of any suspicious people, especially the people of the Western Desert." ”

Sanshi's face froze, "Ye is suspicious, was it the mask assassin who took away Xiao Shizi before?" ”

Mei Zijin's heart was full of ice and snow, but apart from him, he couldn't imagine who else would take Yun'er......

After giving the order to the three stones, Mei Zijin galloped on his horse and galloped towards the palace.

Along the way, Mei Zijin was flustered, more flustered than ever.

On the one hand, he was convinced that Shui Qingqing would not agree to marry Li You, but on the other hand, he had no confidence in his heart, like quicksand flowing through his hands, he was very confident to hold it, but in the end he watched them slip through his fingers......

What made him feel even more uncomfortable was that he vaguely felt that Yun'er's sudden disappearance was related to Shui Qingqing's marriage......

Thinking of this, Mei Zijin was even more anxious, and there was a bad premonition in his heart.

When he arrived at the palace gate, he didn't have time to get off the horse, and he saw Shui Qingqing coming out of the palace gate.

Shui Qingqing also saw him.

At the moment when the four eyes met, Shui Qingqing looked at the eagerness and worry in his eyes, as well as the beads of sweat on his forehead, and felt a pain in her heart, and before the tears were about to fall, she hurriedly turned her face sideways.

It was she who betrayed him, it was she who didn't keep her word and didn't keep the agreement between the two, she was sorry for him, how could she have the face to cry in front of him again......

Mei Zijin dismounted three steps and made two steps in front of her, ignoring that there were other people at the gate of the palace, she clenched her cold hand, suppressed the trembling of her voice, and said eagerly: "You ......"

"I promised to give marriage!"

Without waiting for Mei Zijin to ask about the worry in his heart, Shui Qingqing had already interrupted his words and said indifferently with an expressionless face.

The hand holding her suddenly tightened, Mei Zijin couldn't believe what she heard, her cold face instantly turned pale, her deep eyes were full of shock, she looked at her in a daze, and said in disbelief: "What are you talking about...... You repeat? ”

His calloused hand made her feel painful, but Shui Qingqing's heart hurt even more.

The two were very close, and she looked at the sadness and grief in his eyes, and her heart ached even more.

On her face, she said coldly with an indifferent face: "Master Hou, I have changed my mind, I decided to follow my mother's deathbed arrangement and marry the third prince Li You - he is the wishful husband selected by my mother for me, and he promised to take good care of me for a lifetime and give me the best in the world." So, I'm willing to marry him! ”

Mei Zijin's eyes were as dark as ink, she couldn't see any light, and there was a dead silence on her face, but her hand trembled slightly.

He looked at her earnestly, and said in a hoarse voice: "You are going to marry into the royal ...... Don't you want Yun'er...... "Don't you want him too?"

Shui Qingqing's heart hurt so much that she couldn't breathe, she turned her face away from him, and said coldly: "Speaking of Yun'er, I have something to tell Hou Ye." ”

Looking at her calm and indifferent description, Mei Zijin already thought of something in her heart, and looked at her in dismay, "Could it be ......?"

"Yes, I sent someone to take Yun'er to the Hou Mansion to take it away."

The corners of Shui Qingqing's mouth hooked up the most cruel smile, and she smiled slowly: "I can't hide it, I can't fully trust Master Hou after all, so I am most at ease when Yun'er stays by my side." ”

As soon as these words came out, Mei Zijin's heart seemed to be pierced by a steel needle, and it hurt her heart.

No one can understand how worried and heartbroken he was when Yun'er didn't see him, and he didn't stop for a moment all morning, almost turning the entire capital upside down......

He knew how important Yun'er was to her, he was afraid that Yun'er would make a mistake, and he was afraid that she would be sad......

However, now she told him lightly that she didn't trust him, so she took Yun'er away without saying a word......

The heart was torn apart, Mei Zijin's deep eyes returned to dead silence, and she had been holding Shui Qingqing's hand that she refused to let go, but she was finally unable to let go......

The news that the princess of the Bai family, the county lord of Guanqing, and the third prince were given marriage has spread throughout the capital in less than half a day.

And because of the new funeral of Princess Wuning, he couldn't wait for Shui Qingqing to keep filial piety for three years, Emperor Jin Ming decided to let the two get married within 100 days, and asked Qin Tianjian to choose a wedding date for the two as soon as possible......

As soon as the news came out, it shocked the entire capital!

For a while, the people of the entire capital were hotly discussed, saying that Shui Qingqing was really a good life, and she had been a Chongxi lady in the Hou Mansion before, but she was driven out of the Hou Mansion because she did not abide by the women's way, and she left home, obviously there was no place to turn over, but she didn't expect to turn around and fly on the high branches and become a human being......

The Bai family also began to be busy again for Shui Qingqing's wedding after the white funeral of Princess Wuning.

For a while, the entire Baifu swept away the previous haze, and there was joy everywhere.

However, in the festive Bai Mansion, the main courtyard where Shui Qingqing lived was dead silent.

After returning from the palace, Shui Qingqing fell ill.

The illness came fiercely, and there was no sign of it, Shui Qingqing had a high fever to the point of fainting, and after the house doctor saw it, they were helpless.

In this way, Bai Haoqing was flustered-

Qin Tianjian set the marriage between Shui Qingqing and the third prince on the ninth day of the second month, and he couldn't see a month's time, Shui Qingqing was going to marry into the third prince as the third princess, but he was seriously ill at this time, he finally tried his best to make this family affair between Baifu and the royal family settled, how could he give up?

Therefore, Bai Haoqing spent a lot of money looking for famous doctors in the capital to seek treatment for Shui Qingqing.

And Li You was also worried when he saw Shui Qingqing suddenly fall ill, and he couldn't care about the avoidance before getting married, so he went to the house every day to visit Shui Qingqing, and even recruited the imperial doctor in the palace to see Shui Qingqing, but Shui Qingqing still had a high fever and did not improve at all.

For a while, the eyes of the people of the world were fixed on Baifu, curious about whether this good county lord who had just been married could get better from a serious illness......

However, next, a piece of news from the Dingguo Hou Mansion shocked the people of the capital, and it also smoothly shifted everyone's eyes from Shui Qingqing to the Hou Mansion.

There was news from the Hou Mansion that Xiao Shizi, who was less than half a year old, suddenly died of illness!

As soon as this news came out, it made the entire capital boil.

Even Emperor Jin Ming was shocked by this news, and personally asked Mei Zijin about the matter to show his concern.

The Dingguo Marquis Mansion has a thin heir, Mei Zijin finally got a son, even if it is a concubine, Emperor Jin Ming also responded to Mei Zijin's request, made an exception and was named the son, but I didn't expect that the only son died halfway.

For a while, everyone sighed that the Dingguo Marquis Mansion was going to decline and was about to break the incense......

In the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, there was a gloomy cloud.

Since that day Yun'er disappeared in the World Security Hospital, the old lady was sad and sad, and she blamed herself for her guilt, urging Mei Zijin to bring someone to find Yun'er back.

But Yun'er was taken away by Shui Qingqing, but where did Mei Zijin go to find the child?

In the urging and worrying of Mrs. Hou every day, Mei Zijin, who was saddened, knew that the matter could no longer be hidden, and in order to put an end to Yun'er's matter, she had to confess to the old lady that Bai Lingwei had deceived everyone by fake pregnancy before, and then robbed Yun'er to pretend to be the heir of the Hou Mansion.

But in order to let the old lady completely give up on Yun'er, Mei Zijin did not tell her that the child Bai Lingwei snatched was Shui Qingqing's, only said that after the matter was discovered by him, he had quietly sent the child away, so as not to be exposed by others in the future and get into the big crime of bullying the king.

Externally, Mei Zijin used the reason for the death of Shizi to settle the grievances between the Hou Mansion and Shui Qingqing, and it can be regarded as completely returning Yun'er to Shui Qingqing......

learned all the truth from Mei Zijin's mouth, and the old lady finally couldn't withstand the blow and fell ill.

In front of the hospital bed, the haggard Mei Zijin knelt in front of the old lady and said in a deep voice: "My son is not filial and has disappointed my mother." ”

Even on the hospital bed, the old lady was still trembling with anger, gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "Ren I have lived for so many years, and I have never heard such a shocking thing...... It's so hateful, in order to compete for favor, not to mention the murder of other aunts' children, and to fake pregnancy and snatch the child from outside to confuse the bloodline of my Hou Mansion...... This Bai clan really wants to cut her with a thousand knives......"

After that, the old lady looked at Mei Zijin with sad eyes, and said hatefully: "Such a vicious woman, what are you still doing in the Hou Mansion with her?" Hurry up and leave her from the Hou Mansion, and then send her to Jing Zhaoyin Prison to ask for her guilt, and let her compensate my Hou Mansion grandson! ”

Now, it is indeed useless to keep Bai Lingwei any longer, and Mei Zijin doesn't want to see her again, so she nodded and responded.

Mei Zijin was about to go down, but the old lady called him out loud and said sadly: "Since you were a child, you have never disappointed your mother, but your back house ...... It was so disappointing for my mother. ”

"Before, my mother always relied on what you said, and let you find the woman you like to be your wife. But now, my mother can't let you be willful. After Yun'er's incident passes, your mother will start choosing a wife for you, and you will have to refuse! ”

Since Shui Qingqing and Li You made a marriage, Mei Zijin has been discouraged, and said in a deep voice: "Everything is subject to my mother's arrangement." It's just that I have taken the initiative to ask the emperor to pacify the war at the border, and I guess my days in the capital will not be too long. ”

Hearing that he was going to the border gate to go to the battlefield again, the old lady's heart couldn't help but feel sour, and the resentment against him in her heart dissipated in an instant, wiping her tears and worrying: "I heard that Da Chu is menacing this time, and he also formed a coalition with Bei Di to commit the Great Jin together, which is extremely dangerous. Others can't hide from it, why do you still take the initiative to take on such a heavy responsibility...... If there is a case, how can the mother live? ”

The border war, is very sudden, since the fifth day of the first day of the imperial court suddenly received a war report, just a few dozen days have passed, the soldiers and horses of Dachu and Beidi have been assembled on the border of the Great Jin, Emperor Ming of Jin has been worried about who is the commander of the enemy.

If it was before, Emperor Jin Ming would definitely hand over this burden to Mei Zijin as soon as possible.

But as Bai Haoqing said, Mei Zijin, who has a high merit, has already made Emperor Jin Ming jealous, so this time, Emperor Jin Ming has not been appointed as the head coach for a long time.

And as smart as Mei Zijin, how could he not understand the subtle changes in the king's heart, so before, he had never taken the initiative to take this matter, until Shui Qingqing and Li You set a wedding date, and he did not leave with all his heart......

The deep eyes were dead silent, and Mei Zijin said in a sullen voice: "Mother rest assured, this is not the first time that my son has experienced a big war, and he will definitely be fine......"

Old Madam Hou wanted to persuade him not to go, but looking at the tenacity between his eyebrows and eyes, she knew that she couldn't persuade him.

What's more, the emperor has already decided on this matter, and no matter how much she says, it will be useless.

At this moment, someone came to tell me in a panic, saying that there was an accident in the firewood room.

When Mei Zijin helped the old lady to rush to the firewood room, she saw Bai Lingwei lying on the ground covered in blood, holding her stomach and wailing.

And Tang Qianqian and the others had already arrived at the firewood room, and the mother-in-law who guarded Bai Lingwei also called the house doctor.

Mei Zijin's eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

The house doctor stepped forward in a panic and said in a trembling voice: "Aunt Bai has drunk a lot of safflower...... The uterus was completely damaged, and this life ...... I can't have any more ......."

Hearing this, everyone took a breath of cold air, and Bai Lingwei, who was struggling and wailing on the ground, heard the words of the house doctor, didn't care about the colic in her stomach, and desperately threw herself at Tang Wanqing on the side, and screamed heartbreakingly: "Poisonous woman, you actually poured red flowers on me, you are so ruthless, I want to fight with you......"

Before she could pounce in front of Tang Wanqing, Chun Yan had already blocked her, stretched out her hand and pushed her to the ground, and said hatefully: "This is your deserved retribution." You put saffron in my young lady's fetal pills, killed the child in the young lady's belly, and made the young lady unable to have children again. So, this bowl of saffron was returned to you by my young lady......"

Tang Wanqing calmly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Mei Zijin and the old lady, and said lightly: "I poured the safflower for Sister Bai, and the Hou Ye and the old lady want to be beaten and punished, and I will suffer it, but ......"

Speaking of this, Tang Wanqing, who has always been cold and indifferent, finally shed tears in front of everyone, choked up and said hatefully: "But I can't forgive her, I must avenge that poor child and myself!" ”

It turned out that since Bai Lingwei confessed that she was the one who had harmed Tang Wanqing's miscarriage, Tang Wanqing thanked Mei Zijin for clearing her grievances, but on the other hand, she secretly waited for Mei Zijin to give Bai Lingwei the final punishment.

However, Mei Zijin just locked Bai Lingwei in the firewood room and never followed.

Tang Wanqing was still afraid that Bai Lingwei was the mother of the son, and she was afraid that in the end, Mei Zijin and the old lady would finally let Bai Lingwei go for the sake of the son. Until the news of the son's 'death' suddenly came, Tang Wanqing felt that Bai Lingwei was completely finished, and the time for her revenge had come.

At the beginning, Bai Lingwei not only took the life of the child in Tang Wanqing's belly, but also caused Tang Wanqing to never be a mother anymore.

Therefore, even if she was punished by Mei Zijin and the old lady, she also had to return this bowl of saffron to Bai Lingwei......

If it was before, the old lady would definitely protect Bai Lingwei for the sake of Bai Fu and Yun'er, but now, the old lady can't wait for her to die, how can she deal with Tang Wanqing for her?

What's more, she did evil first, Tang Wanqing took revenge later, who is she to blame?!

The old lady asked Chun Yan to step forward to help Tang Wanqing up, looked coldly at Bai Lingwei who was lying in the firewood and grass pile, like a paralyzed mud, and hated: "She deserves it, and she can't complain about anyone!" Someone came, sent her to Jing Zhaoyin, and put her in prison on the charge of murdering the heir of the Hou Mansion! ”

The letter of resignation from the Hou Mansion was quickly sent to the Bai Mansion, but Bai Lingwei and Xia Chan Jin Mama were escorted to Jing Zhaoyin's prison and locked up.

The moment he learned the news, Yang almost fainted, and stumbled to beg Bai Haoqing, hoping that he would come forward to go to the cell and rescue Bai Lingwei.

However, since Shui Qingqing became seriously ill, Bai Haoqing had all his thoughts on Shui Qingqing's condition, and he didn't care about Bai Lingwei's affairs at all, nor did he want to care about it at all.

Because Bai Lingwei, who was abandoned by the Hou Mansion, is useless, such a daughter will only discredit the Bai Mansion, how can Bai Haoqing take care of her carefully......

On the contrary, Bai Haoqing smiled with satisfaction after learning the news of the death of the son of the Hou Mansion.

Everything was as he wished......

In this way, on the fourth day of Shui Qingqing's serious illness, Bai Haoqing personally carried Yun'er into the main courtyard and came to Shui Qingqing's bedside.

The imperial doctor told Bai Haoqing that Shui Qingqing had a heart disease, she closed her heart, begged for death, and refused to take medicine, so that her condition would become more and more serious, and a minor illness would become a major illness.

Of course, Bai Haoqing knew what her heart disease was, so after learning that the Hou Mansion had completely let go of Yun'er, she came to Shui Qingqing's bedside with Yun'er in her arms.

Bai Haoqing said in a deep voice to Shui Qingqing, who closed his eyes tightly: "Father General Yun'er brought it to you, don't you want to see him?" ”

Sure enough, hearing Yun'er's words, Shui Qingqing's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the next moment, she opened her eyes with difficulty.

Bai Haoqing handed Yun'er to her, and Shui Qingqing's dead eyes lit up suddenly.

She struggled to hug Yun'er, but her body was so weak that she didn't have any strength due to serious illness, she just looked at Yun'er with her eyes and cried silently.

Seeing this, Bai Haoqing waved his hand to let Xiaoxi, who was shocked and stunned, wave her hand, and asked her to serve Shui Qingqing the boiled medicine and quickly feed her.

Regarding the news of the 'death of the prince of the Hou Mansion', Xiaoxi had heard about it, and she had secretly wiped her tears sadly for the 'death' of the lovely little prince, so she suddenly saw Bai Haoqing appearing with Yun'er in her arms, and Xiaoxi was so shocked that her jaw was about to drop.

And when he heard what Bai Haoqing said to Shui Qingqing below, Xiao Xi was so shocked that he almost couldn't hold the bowl and spoon in his hand.

Bai Haoqing put Yun'er beside Shui Qingqing and said, "What my father promised you, I will definitely do it." And now, the Hou Mansion has announced that the Hou Mansion has passed away from illness, indicating that they have completely let go of Yun'er. In this way, it can be regarded as a father helping you get your son back. What else do you have to be sad about? Drink medicine well to heal your illness. ”

Hearing this, Shui Qingqing's heart tightened, and when she thought of Mei Zijin leaving sadly and desperately at the gate of the palace, her chest hurt like tears again.

Yes, she is about to marry into the Three Princes' Mansion as a princess, and she has nothing to do with him. And now that Yun'er has returned to her side, the grievances between her and the Hou Mansion have been completely over......

After Shui Qingqing drank the medicine according to her words, she took Yun'er into her arms with great difficulty and asked Bai Haoqing: "Usually, who do you entrust him to take care of?" Is it reliable? ”

Bai Haoqing said: "You don't have to worry about this, my father will find the most trusted person and take good care of him when he grows up." If you want to see him after you get married, your father will arrange for your mother and son to meet. ”

Now, Shui Qingqing has nothing else to ask for, her eyes are fixed looking at Bai Haoqing, she gritted her teeth and said: "Okay, I am willing to listen to your arrangement, I just ask you to keep your promise and let people take good care of him." ”

Bai Haoqing smiled with satisfaction, and said slowly: "In this way, before you get married, your father will let him accompany you more, you just have to take care of your body with peace of mind, and on the ninth day of the second lunar month, you will get married!" ”

After speaking, Bai Haoqing's eyes fell coldly on Xiao Xi, who was stunned on the side, and with a wave of his hand, his subordinates grabbed Xiao Xi.

This sudden change frightened both Xiaoxi and Shui Qingqing, and Bai Hao said coldly: "I thought that this girl knew about Yun'er, but now it seems that you didn't let her know." In this way, in order to keep the secret, she can no longer live in this world, and her father will help you dispose of ......"

Bai Haoqing looked at people in detail, just looking at Xiaoxi's expression, he had already guessed that she didn't know that Yun'er was Shui Qingqing's child in advance, so in order to keep it a secret, he had murderous intentions towards her.

Seeing Bai Haoqing let his subordinates drag the frightened Xiaoxi down, Shui Qingqing recovered from the fright, and hurriedly stopped her, "Let go of her, she won't betray me - it's not that I deliberately hide it from her, but I haven't had time to tell her that she is my person and won't betray my ......"

Listening to Shui Qingqing's words, Bai Haoqing hesitated for a moment, and finally let go of Xiaoxi and let her go.

After Bai Haoqing led people away, Shui Qingqing pulled the frightened Xiaoxi, comforted her softly, and finally told Xiaoxi about Yun'er's life experience, as well as the purpose of her entering the Hou Mansion at the beginning, and the fact that she was victimized by Bai Lingwei before.

The more I listened, the more shocked Xiaoxi became!

Shui Qingqing said helplessly: "Xiaoxi, it's not that I deliberately hide it from you, but this matter is very important, and even I am not very sure, so I don't dare to ......tell anyone at all."

Xiao Xi was stunned and said: "No wonder Miss was so good to Xiao Shizi in the Hou Mansion before, it turned out to be ...... He turned out to be the young lady's child. Miss, don't worry, I won't tell anyone more. I have never heard anything that Miss said to me today. ”

Shui Qingqing looked at Xiaoxi gratefully, "Thank you Xiaoxi, in the future, you will accompany me to the palace, or even enter the palace, the road ahead will only become more and more dangerous, are you afraid?" ”

Xiaoxi smiled shyly: "Don't be afraid, I'll go wherever Miss goes." In the future, I will not only protect Miss, but also protect Xiaoshi...... No, it's a little boy. ”

On the other side, Bai Haoqing, who walked out of the main courtyard, was entangled by the Yang family again.

Regardless of the subordinates watching, Yang knelt down in the middle of the road on the spot and said sadly: "Master, please save Wei'er...... She was poured saffron in the Hou Mansion and is still in prison...... Sir, please save her life......"

Bai Hao's eyes looked at the crying Yang family coldly, and said coldly: "You taught the bad daughter yourself, how can I save it?" Instead of thinking about saving a wasted person, you might as well spend your energy on Guan Qing's wedding, the house will be very busy recently, you don't want to add to the chaos! ”

After that, Bai Haoqing had already left with his sleeves up.

Yang was so desperate that she almost fainted, and was helped back to the house by the maid, and the big maid beside her was mysteriously attached, and whispered: "Madam, there are people outside who ask to see Madame." ”

The Yang family was grief-stricken, and there was still a desire to see people, so he said coldly: "Let him go, no one wants to see anyone!" ”

Cai Juan hesitated and said: "Madam, this person was sent by Mama Jin to the West Desert to find the eldest lady who married in the West Desert before, and now she is back, because Mama Jin is in prison, she only comes to find Madame, saying that she has found the family surnamed Wang that the eldest lady married before......"

"Let him come to me!"

Without waiting for Cai Juan to finish speaking, Yang's gray eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to let Cai Juan bring people in.

Yang's voice trembled with excitement, and he thought of something in his heart, and a cold light crossed his sharp eyes......
